Term 2 of 269

Affect the batteries (not BTRYs), ex. cold batteries have a reduced capability to produce
power lasers.
LOS, entrapment, attenuation, temperature extremes, and solar saturation.
Type of mission, size of element to FFE, and method of TGT location (only in first
transmission).
-Four 120-mm OR 81-mm per maneuver BN.
-Two 120-mm OR 60-mm per CO.
-Two 120-mm per reconnaissance TRP.
,Term 3 of 269
What are the two types of WP FA FZs?
Shift from a KN PT, polar plot, and grid coordinates using a map.
GBU-32.
Q/PD or TI.
GBU-16.
Term 4 of 269
What are the advantages, disadvantages, and examples of aircraft rockets?
Advantages: Unguided* (pilot ability), longer RG than guns, variety of effects, and TGT
marking.
Disadvantages: High financial cost.
Examples: 2.75" unguided, 5" Zuni (USMC only), and APKWS.
Mortar and short RG artillery; 60K at 1600 mils for artillery and rockets/20K at 6400 mils for
mortars and short RG artillery.
WP: Quick build, short duration.
HC: Long build, long duration.
M825 Improved: Quick build, long duration.
Advantages: Can be rapidly adjusted onto moving TGTs, predictive aiming systems on some
A/C, and lower REDs.
Disadvantages: Accuracy relies on pilot ability and limited effectiveness against armored
TGTs (excluding the A-10's GAU-8 Avenger).
Examples: M240D (7.62) U/H-1N/Y, GAU-17/M134 (7.62) U/H-1N/Y, GAU-21 (.50 cal) U/H-
1N/Y, M61A1 'Vulcan' (20mm) AH-1W/Z, GAU 12 'Equalizer' Cannon (25mm) AV-8B, M230
Chaingun (30mm) AH-64, and the GAU 8 'Avenger' Cannon (30mm) A-10.
,Term 5 of 269

Quick SMK.
Supporting.
Term 6 of 269
What is the nomenclature for a 1000 lb laser-guided?
GBU-31.
GBU-16.

casualties or materiel damage.
Temporary degradation of the performance of a force or weapon system below the level
needed to accomplish the mission.
Type, activity, # of elements, degree of protection, and size & shape if significant (length,
width, attitude).
Term 9 of 269
What does neutralize mean as a tactical task?
GS with priority of fires, GS with priority TGTs, GS without established priorities, and DS.
A FIST HQ and FO teams (usually three); the FIST HQ is composed of the following four
personnel: FSO (LT), FS SGT (SSG), FS SPC (SPC), and RTO (SPC/PFC).
Rendering enemy personnel or materiel incapable of interfering with a particular operation.
Converged, open, special, and spread.
Term 10 of 269
