A

an ID derived from visual observation, and/or electronic systems, possibly combined with other factors (e.g. point of origin), with a higher confidence of accuracy than a simple lack of friend or lack of enemy.

40
Q

Identify procedural identification procedures for IAMD.

A

a combination of previously agreed upon Airspace Coordination Measures (ACM) and promulgated through the Airspace Control Plan (ACP), Airspace Control Orders (ACO), and SPINS

44
Q

Describe Autonomous mode of control

A

A unit assumes autonomous operations after it has lost all communications to higher tactical headquarters. The firing unit commander assumes full responsibility for control of weapons and engagement of hostile targets in accordance with previously received directives, existing ROE, WCS, as established in the AADP
