Q

Describe CDE

A

Unintended or incidental damage to persons or objects which are not lawful targets. Conducted before operations so the CDR can prepare for and mitigate possible effects.

Q

Identify 5 positive effects of target management

A
  1. Identifies intelligence gaps
  2. Prioritizes and synergizes operational effort
  3. Develops adaptive offensive strategy that is effects based and applies operational patience for higher gains
  4. Identifies opportunities for surge/synchronized operations
  5. Applies constant pressure on the adversary’s operational cycle

  2. Effects based
  3. Interdisciplinary
  4. Systematic [iterative and methodical according to plan]

Q

Describe the difference between an MOE and MOP

A

An MOE asks are we doing the right things? Are we meeting our intended purpose?

An MOP asks are we doing things right? Did we complete the task we intended to do?

Q

What are the responsibilities of the SOLE?

A
  • Critical to integrating the ARSOF/JSOTF commander’s targeting needs with the Joint Force
  • Joint Warfare at Operational Level
  • ARSOFs LNO to the JFACC
  • Located at Air Ops Center (AOC)

Q

Describe the difference between and HVT and HPT

A

The HVT is a target the enemy commander requires for the successful completion of the mission. The HPT is a subset of HVTs, whose loss to the enemy will significantly contribute to the success of the friendly COA success.

Q

Define Targeting

A

The process of selecting (IPB) and prioritizing (CARVER) targets and matching the appropriate response to them, considering operational requirements and capabilities.

Q

What is the purpose/main objective of Targeting?

A

Identifying resources (targets) the enemy can least afford to lose or that provide him with the greatest advantage.

17
Q

What are two targeting categories?

A
  • Deliberate - known to exist in OE and have actions scheduled against them
  • Dynamic - Targets of opportunity and changes to planned targets/objectives
18
Q

What are the two types of Dynamic targeting?

A
  • Unplanned: known to exist but not targeting

- Unanticipated: Unknown/Unexpected targets

19
Q

What are the two types of Deliberate targeting?

A
  • Scheduled: specific time

- On-Call: actions planned but not for specific delivery time

20
Q

What are the five Army Target Characteristics?

A
  1. Physical - Discernible to the 5 senses
  2. Functional - What the target does and how it does it
  3. Cognitive - How the target processes information
  4. Environmental - Effect of environment on target
  5. Temporal - Target’s vulnerability based on time available
21
Q

Define COG

A

A source of power that provides moral or physical strength, freedom of action, or will to act.

22
Q

What is the challenge with targeting?

A

How do we sift through massive amounts of intel, examine the adversary from a macro level and characterize vulnerabilities with enough detail to derive meaningful targets?

23
Q

How do we overcome the challenges to targeting?

A
  • Conduct thorough IPB
  • Strict adherence to various processes like TVA, COG Analysis, CARVER
  • PIRs must be tied to a decision point
  • (Fusion) S2 & S3 must coordinate the collection effort and targeting effort
  • Update the collection plan, strict management of assets and disseminate information
