d Flashcards
Guided Release:
No IP
NAVs Drive on Blue Line
Successful release anywhere inside the Launch Acceptability Region (LAR)
LARs are DMPI fixed
Weapon Footprints move with the jet
JDAM targets have associated DMPIs
7000 # = Target
6000 # = DMPIs
2000 # = Created Targets and DMPIs
1 JDAM per DMPI
4 JDAMs per GATS Precision Pattern
A Master targeted DMPI with up to 3 Slaved DMPIs spaced evenly about the master to aid GATS tactics
Up to 16 DMPIs per target
DMPI are individually AFMSS planned with coordinates and elevation
DMPI are linked to the target by NEDs (North / East / Down)
SMP performs achievability checks & displays status
Achievable - a weapon can successfully hit the DMPI
Weapon Release
Unachievable – a weapon cannot successfully hit the DMPI
No Weapon Release attempted
Achievability status is displayed for each DMPI
SMP stops prosecuting on a target when:
all achievable weapons have been released
target is deselected (Target N-select)
skip-overfly is selected
NOTE: When the aircraft is outside the target’s PMT longer than 2 minutes and
distance is increasing from the target, the target will drop off the ATL.
SMP ranges on as many as 4 JDAM targets simultaneously (ATL)
When one target enters periodic management (PM), it is the next target to be prosecuted

jettison only
normal launch
launch in a degraded status
launch after a transfer alignment
