War Fighting Functions |
Mission Command - Related tasks and systems commanders use to balance art of command and science of control. Intelligence - Related tasks and systems to understand enemy, terrain, and civil considerations Fires - Systems for coordinated use of IDF, CAS, Joint Fires Movement and Maneuver - Move and employ forces to achieve position of advantage over enemy Sustainment - Support and services to ensure freedom of action Protection - Preserve the force to accomplish the mission |
|

|
Surface Danger Zone |
Delineates that portion of the earth and the air above in which personnel and/or equipment may be endangered by ground weapons firing or demolition activities. |
|
Movement Box |
A movement box is designed to accommodate movement to an objective. Shooters move within the designated "box" and may engage multiple targets or moving targets downrange. |
|
Two Types of SDZs |
Cone - Static/Known Distance Batwing - For greater containment of all ricochets, better for maneuver |
|
Impact Area |
The Primary danger area for the impact of all rounds. |
|
Dispersion Area |
Distribution of a series of rounds from one weapon aimed at one point of impact. |
|
Angle P |
Dispersion area in Degrees (5 Degrees) |
|
Ricochet Area |
The area provided to contain ricochet projectiles. |
|
Angle Q |
Ricochet Area expressed in degrees (5 degrees) |
|
Area A |
The area parallels the impact area to contain fragments. |
|
Area B |
The area on the downrange side of the impact area. |
|
Area F |
Backblast Area |
