◍ standard track gage.
Answer: 56 1/2 in
◍ excepted track gage.
Answer: 58 1/4 in
◍ During impact registration the observer spots the rounds for deviation to the
nearest one mil and brings the rounds onto the observer-target line before
____________________..
Answer: Splitting 200 meter bracket
◍ If a burst correction is desired during an immediate suppression mission
what should be transmitted before the correction?.
Answer: Target description
◍ if track is defective for more than 30 days, it is _________.
Answer: out of service
◍ part 213 prescribes _____________________________.
Answer: minimum safety requirements for railroad track that is part of the
general railroad system of transportation
◍ Normally, the observer using successive bracketing requests FFE when they
split a ______ meter bracket. Under certain conditions when the PER of the
weapon is _____ meters or larger, an observer is justified in calling for FFE
when a _____ meter bracket is split..
Answer: 100, 38, 200
◍ ______________________ track is not to be located within 30 feet of an
, adjacent track which can be subjected to simultaneous use at speeds in
excess of 10 miles per hour.
Answer: excepted
◍ How soon should the FRA be advised prior to removing a track from
excepted status?.
Answer: at least 10 days
◍ During impact registration when the 50 meter range bracket has been
established, _____ rounds are fired with data 25 meters in the direction
opposite that of the last range spotting..
Answer: 2
◍ CWR is rail length that exceeds _____ feet.
Answer: 400
◍ Does rail installed as CWR change when a joint or plug is installed into the
rail at a later time?.
Answer: No
◍ True / False: During impact registration range refinement, if the registration
point is nearer the last round(s) fired, no range refinement is necessary to
move the impact toward the registration point..
Answer: True
◍ In registration, deviation refinement is determined by adding the deviation
spottings of the rounds establishing the two over and two short (this may
include two, three, or four deviation spottings). Then ____________ the
total of the deviation spottings by the number of rounds (two, three, or four)
to get an average deviation. Express the result to the nearest mil. The
average deviation multiplied by the observer-target factor equals the
correction, which the observer expresses to the nearest _____________..
Answer: Divide, 10 meters
◍ 1. Upon achieving the objective of registration the observer has recorded the
following usable deviation spottings. What should the observer send to the
FDC for deviation refinement?Round. Spotting OT Factor6 7 Right 27 15
