When using a ground IR Pointer the A/C calls REQUIRED are?

Visual, Tally or Contact Sparkle

A flight by one aircraft is known as a ______

Sortie

For Simultaneous attacks what is the required/necessary call to approve weapons release?


Call Sign, Flight, Cleared Hot


ex. Heat 2-1 Flight, Cleared Hot


True/ False: Type 1 must be a BOT?


False. Type 1 = controller has to see tgt and attacking air craft to asses geometry and nose position.

Which type of separation requires the most detailed coordination and may be required when aircrews must fly near indirect fire trajectories or ordnance effects?

Timed separation. Ex; SEAD

Danger close is defined by;

Ordnance delivered within 0.1%PI distance for that particular ordnance.

When utilizing a Laser or IR Pointer, where is the LTL or PTL briefed on the 9 line?

Remarks after 9 line.


What units may be used for line 6 in a CAS brief?


Hint; G,O,L/L

Grid coordinate, offset from known point, Lat/Long


When an aircraft releases ordnance at a height below 500 AGL, it is considered what?

Very low altitude CAS


What are the general categories of limited visibility employment?


Hint; V,S,N

Visual, system-aided, Night Vision Device

A final attack heading of 270 (+/- 30) would be the same as what?

240-300

In regard to TLE categories, CAT 4 tgt location is how accurate?

31-91 meters.

True/False; In the AC-130 CFF, the transmission of the fire mission is clearance for the aircraft to fire, unless danger close.

True

Who establishes formal ACMs?

The airspace control authority (ACA)


If correlation between aircrew and JTAC has been met and no coordinate has been sent to aircrew, then a detailed line 5 and estimated line 4 should be sent. The JTAC should brief, estimated line 4, a detailed line 5 and for line 6 ; "from your tally or capture" may be used. When this TTP is used, the aircraft will state TALLY or if able to state CAPTURE, provide updated line 4/6 to the JTAC... What action would the JTAC do next?


Ensure aircrew states TALLY or if able to pass updated line 6, this does NOT need to be read back.
