A ______________ is a target that is known to exist in the operational environment, upon which actions are planned using deliberate targeting, creating effects which support commander’s objectives.
Planned Target
A ___________ is a planned target upon which fires or other actions are determined using deliberate targeting and triggered, when detected or located, using dynamic targeting
On-call Target
True / False: Occupying an observation post using SLoCTOP; during O-observation ensure all team members are proficient in friendly/threat forces recognition.
True
A _____________ is a planned target upon which fires or other actions are scheduled for prosecution at a specified time.
Scheduled Target
________________ is an immediately available prearranged barrier of fire designed to impede enemy movement across defensive lines or areas.
Final Protective Fire
_________ can be conducted at any place and time friendly forces are in close proximity to enemy forces. The word “close” does not imply a specific distance; rather, it is situational. The requirement for detailed integration because of proximity, fires, or movement is the determining factor.
Close Air Support
____________ normally produces the specific effect on a target with the minimum expenditure of ammunition. It also reduces our vulnerability to adversary target acquisition.
Massing Fires
The _____________ has the responsibility to integrate fire support with the scheme of maneuver, and provides the commander’s intent for an operation and issues guidance, including guidance for fire support. The ______ translates the guidance into fire support tasks. Each fire support task and purpose directly supports a maneuver task and purpose.
Maneuver Commander / FSO
A ___________ is a planned target upon which fires or other actions are determined using deliberate targeting and triggered, when detected or located, using dynamic targeting.
On-call Target
A _______________ is a target, based on either time or importance, on which the delivery of fires takes precedence over all the fires for the designated firing unit or element.
Priority Target
The _____________ and its elements integrate the fires warfighting function into operations. It has resources to plan for future operations from the main command post and to support current operations from the tactical command post (when deployed).
Fires Cell
What are the Five Requirements of Accurate Predicted Fires?
accurate target location and size
accurate firing unit location
accurate weapon and ammunition information
accurate meteorological information
accurate computational procedures
__________ is used when the JTAC/FAC (A) requires control of individual attacks and the situation requires the JTAC/FAC (A) to visually acquire the attacking aircraft and visually acquire the target for each attack.
Type 1 Control
If the registration point is equidistant between the two sets of rounds, the observer determines the range refinement to be ADD _____ or DROP _____ from the last data fired.
10
A ____________________ is an operation to defeat an enemy attack, gain time, economize forces, and develop conditions favorable for offensive or stability operations
Defensive Operation
What munition is available to utilize with the 120mm mortar that minimizes collateral damage and reduces the number of rounds required to defeat targets?
APMI
The role of the FA is to _________________________ the enemy by cannon, rocket, and missile fire and to integrate and synchronize all FS assets into operations.
Destroy, defeat, or disrupt
What task is used when a force under pressure trades space for time by slowing down the enemy's momentum and inflicting maximum damage on enemy forces without becoming decisively engaged?
Delay
Activity that neutralizes, destroys, or temporarily degrades surface-based enemy air defenses by destructive and/or disruptive means.
Suppression of enemy air defense
________________ is the authority over forces that is limited to the detailed direction and control of movements or maneuvers within the operational area necessary to accomplish missions or tasks assigned
Tactical control
_________________ is a clear and concise expression of the purpose of the operation and the desired military end state that supports mission command, provides focus to the staff, and helps subordinate and supporting commanders act to achieve the commander’s desired results without further orders, even when the operation does not unfold as planned.
Commander’s intent
A _______________________ is a plan that addresses each means of fire support available and describes how Army indirect fires, joint fires, and target acquisition are integrated with maneuver to facilitate operational success.
Fire support plan
_____________ is the process of selecting and prioritizing targets and matching the appropriate response to them, considering operational requirements and capabilities.
Targeting
_________________is the geographical area where high-value targets can be acquired and engaged by friendly forces.
Target area of interest
A ____________________ is a criterion used to assess changes in system behavior, capability, or operational environment that is tied to measuring the attainment of an end state, achievement of an objective, or creation of an effect.
Measure of effectiveness
