Investigate
Verify specified element(s) of ROE, PID, CDE, and/or
coordination of forces on the referenced target/track. This implies that neither PID
nor CDE has been accomplished by the SCARC.
Target
ROE, PID, coordination of forces, and commander’s guidance
requirements on the referenced target/track have been satisfied. Target/track
correlation and CDE must be accomplished prior to employing ordnance/fires.
Authorization to drop ordnance is granted once these conditions have been met.

ROE, PID, CDE, coordination of forces, and commander’s guidance requirements
on the referenced target/track have been satisfied.

SCC
Sea Combatant Commander (Z)
The SCC is an optional position which integrates ASW and SUW warfare tasks under one commander. In
addition to SUW and ASW, other warfare tasks that may be assigned to the SCC are: HEC, MIWC, SC, SOCA,
and MIO commander. When activated, the SCC plans, directs, monitors, and assesses CWC tasks in support of
the JFMCC/numbered fleet commander’s maritime support plan for sea control
The SCC is normally a destroyer squadron (DESRON) commodore for a carrier group and a senior ship
commanding officer for an amphibious task organization, (e.g., LHA/LHD/CG)
