SAFETY EXAM
You are supervising a laser operation and observe reflection of the laser
beyond the targets. You call a Cease Fire. What could be the cause of
the reflection? - ANSWERS-Targets may be smaller than laser spot size
and overspill is occurring.
What is the principal hazard associated with an operation involving laser
target designation and laser-guided weapons? - ANSWERS-Fratricide
What does "M" designator indicate when associated with a class of laser
systems (e.g/, Class1M)? - ANSWERS-Hazardous when viewed with
magnifying optics
What is the definition of a Laser Surface Danger Zone (LSDZ)? -
ANSWERS-The designated ground area where laser radiation levels
may exceed Maximum Permissible Exposure Levels (MPE)
What type of laser application uses a laser to aid visual acquisition of a
target by identifying laser energy output from a laser designator and
displaying the target's position? - ANSWERS-Laser target
designation/laser guided weapon

SAFETY EXAM
Prior to a laser operation, you are viewing the target area through optics.
You are concerned because you believe the target could present a
specular reflection of the laser beam.
Which item on the vehicle are you concerned could present this hazard?
- ANSWERS-Plate glass window
You are inspecting a range prior to the start of a range laser operation.
You observe standing water within the LSDZ that pooled there last night
during a rain storm. As a LRSO, what action do you take? - ANSWERS-
Call Range Control for guidance
As an LRSO, it helps to understand the placement of the laser designator
in an operation involving a laser-guided weapon to preclude the
munitions from being dropped on the laser designator position rather
than the target. - ANSWERS-Laser Designator 2
A diffuse reflection differs from a specular reflection. Which of the
following statements is not true regarding diffuse reflection? -
ANSWERS-A diffuse reflection produces a concentrated beam that
allows a seeker to lock on.
