38
Q

How many stages are there in the CAS execution template

A

12

39
Q

Why do CAS players use the template

A

So that the CAS aircrew and JTAC have a standard repeatable format to expect in a highly dynamic environment

40
Q

What does the brevity term ROGER mean?

A

I have received and understood your transmission

41
Q

What does the brevity term AFFIRM mean?

A

Yes

42
Q

What does the brevity term TALLY mean?

A

Sighting of target via the pilots eyes

43
Q

What are the two methods of attack and what do they mean?

A

1: BOT bomb on target is where the jtac talks the pilot visual onto the target
2: BOC bomb on coordinate is where the jtac give the coordinates of the that to the pilot

44
Q

BOT

45
Q

If the releasing asset is above the cloud and not able to see the tgt or mark what method of attack is that?

A

BOC

46
Q

From who would you expect a read back from prior to a BOC attack?

A

All A/C delivering ordnance

47
Q

Name some advantages of the BOT attack

A

Use for mobile tgts - tally the tgt then can maintain continuous observation

Type of control and method of attack

51
Q

A

Feet amsl

52
Q

What are the CAS brief mandatory readback items

A

Elevation, location, FF, restrictions

53
Q

What are the four phases of cas

Briefing
Execution
Reporting

54
Q

What are the three holding patterns

A

Racetrack
Fig 8
Wheel

55
Q

Why would you make a control type 1

A

It is used when the JTAC/ FAC(A) requires control of individual attacks and the situation requires the JTAC to visually acquire the attacking A.C and the target for each attack.

56
Q

You are in a bunker and acquire the A/C but you can see the tgt what type of control can you use

A

2+3

57
Q

You are withdrawing from a position on the west side of a river that is being run by enemy tanks. All FFs have crossed the river to the East Bank and you want A/C to attack all enemy tanks until they are neutralised. What type of control could this be?

A

Type 3

58
Q

You plan to hit a target with a bomb from an A/C that is above the clouds, what type of control could you use?

A

2+3

59
Q
