A+|Status: Guaranteed Pass
What is the optimal attack path for an aircraft when employing laser-guided air-to-ground
weapons? - Answers -The optimal attack zone is inside a 120-degree cone whose apex is at the
target and extends to 60 degrees on either side of the target-to-laser designator line and is
outside the 20 degree exclusion zone, both laterally and vertically.
You are looking to reduce risks to personnel, and you are looking at the different road blocks
and gates around the range. Which type of control measure does this fall in? - Answers -
Administrative control measures
You are supervising a range laser operation that calls for employment of rifles with the AN/PEQ-
15 Advanced Target Pointer Illuminator Aiming Light (ATPIAL). The unit shows up with the
AN/PEQ-16A Mini-Integrated Pointer Illuminator Module (MIPIM), which personnel tell you is
"the same thing". Are the laser systems brought to the range authorized? - Answers -No. Even
though they fall into the same laser classification, the range request identified the ATPIAL.
You are preparing a three-part safety/pre-mission brief for an upcoming training exercise. For
part one, under the category of Laser TM, which reference will you use to gather the
information you need? - Answers -Laser systems information
For part three, under the category of DA PAM 385-63, which reference will you use to gather
the information you need? - Answers -Laser safety considerations

, For part two, under the category of Range Request/Range SOP, which references will you use to
gather the information you need? - Answers -Mission profile, authorized targets, PPE
What is the definition of a Laser Surface Danger Zone (LSDZ)? - Answers -The minimum land and

As an LRSO, you will ensure a clear line of sight exists between the laser system and the target
prior to starting a laser operation. What type of control measure does this represent? - Answers
-Engineering control
Which of the following is NOT a factor to be considered when placing targets for laser
employment? - Answers -The laser hazard can be contained outside of the range boundaries.
You are supervising a range laser operation involving laser-guided weapons. The munitions
detonations are causing smoke and dust to partially obscure the targets. As LRSO, what action
should you take? - Answers -Hold training until the smoke and dust clear.
