“Swift, for G warm, hook L/R” - 5g
“Swift 1 sweet, 2 sweet”
“Swift, reference XXX”
“Swift BH xxxxft, xxxx set” - Acknowledge (datum = BH + 1000ft)
“Swift, position xx, yours”
[no steer for SMPM checks]
What must be done pre-combat on an EFM event?
- Reload? - Check fuel
- MPM
- Start parameters gained (on height, on speed, in line abreast with correct spacing and pre-combat checks complete)
- “Swift, for serial X call ready”, “Swift 1 ready”, “Swift 2 ready”
[PRIOR to calling READY you must be TALLY with the other aircraft and have checked your fuel state]
- “Swift, check 60 L/R” or as req. for serial
How is EFM routinely knocked off and what checks must then be completed?
“Swift KIO”
“Swift 1 KIO”
“Swift 2 KIO”
Regain formation integrity (rear a/c)
“Swift reference XXX” (i.e. “reverse”
“Swift check XX L/R” (to achieve good Line Abreast)
M2, Fuel, Airspace
MM - Nav
MAS - Safe
Fuel - Sufficient, relate to Joker/BINGO
Airspace - Manage VATA/CAP datums, turn as req.
How is EFM knocked off in an emergency and what checks must then be completed?
“KIO, KIO, KIO, Swift KIO” (with reason, e.g. stranger 2 o’clock level)
“Swift 1 KIO”
“Swift 2 KIO”
Then regain formation integrity, checks and avoiding as req.
Who controls the formation post KIO to regain formation integrity for the next event and how will the HOSTILE fly to ensure separation?
Rear aircraft controls the formation to regain parallel fuselages
Hostile will maintain a 45 deg. AoB turn until the rear calls the reference heading.
Normally fighter rolls out and calls their roll out hdg as the reference to allow the hostile to reverse in to line abreast.
During this time accelerate to the datum of 210 KIAS.
What is the datum speed for the start of an EFM event?
210 KIAS
What steps must be taken for the formation ‘FENCE out’ and begin the recovery post EFM?
Tac lead handed back to hostile
“Swift Fence Out”
“Swift 2”
“Swift 2 Fenced Out”
“Swift Gyros”

SWITCHES SAFE??
Arrow formation (or close form)

F2, call out range (2500, 2000, 1800, 1500)
Rangex (1000ft, 700ft, 500ft)
Back to CZ @ 210KIAS
“Fights on”
Hostile, Height, Speed, (SS)
Kill picture? Bleed, regain, sustain
Control overtake, LCOS tracking
Hostile reverses, wingovers, rollercoaster
How is serial 1 (track ex) flown as the defender?
210kts
What is serial 2?
Turn circle entry
How is serial 2 (turn circle entry) flown as the fighter?
