Attachment 5: Scenario 4

Description

Commanders Intent Purpose: Use CAS for armed over watch as Able establishes blocking position and support by fire. CAS has been an effective deterrent to anti coalition activity in the AO. CAS and Organic fire Support Assets will be used to neutralize any threat which my hinder the success of this mission Key Tasks:

*Neutralize AAA threats Set up blocking positions and support by fire on objective Bradshaw* Capture or kill HVT’s * Secure anti coalition weapons*

End state: severe degradation of ACF C2 and inability to operate in Able

AO.

Weather: 80% Chance of rain

KEY INFORMATION:

US Military Personnel – 30 3xUH-60

Training Objectives:

Training objective will be tailored to your individual requirements. The scenario will utilize at least one mission set outlined in the standard JTAC training syllabus (SJTS). To expedite training, mission sets may be combined to ensure full training coverage during the allotted simulation time .

Ensure you check your training status prior to showing for the event. You will inform the simulator instructor what training you require.

Instructors will belief you which mission sets have been selected.

Political Impact to Area There will not be any collateral damage to the Mosque IVO 42S WD 15621 08839. Weapons effect should be mitigated in close proximity to civilian structures

S4.1 Critical X X 3.3.2.11.12

JTC TRS shall enable the trainee(s) to control adverse weather CAS missions per AFI 13‐112 V1 Table 2.1 Task

03.13.

From the IOS, set overcast deck at 4000' AGL (with heavy rain below), with an additional scattered deck at

9000' AGL.

2. From the PSC, aircraft altitude is lowered below clouds, with secondary sensor sweep.

1. Display occluded in both TV and IR spectra, until aircraft descends below or offsets laterally from clouds.

2. Aircraft is able to see surface with sensor.

2. 2S6 targets hi‐altitude airborne asset.

1‐2. 2S6 entity responds to PSC inputs.

S4.6 Critical X X 3.4.3.1.28

The SAF/CGF shall allow for aircraft to dispense chaff and flare countermeasures in response to surface‐to‐air or air‐to‐air threats. Applies to both fixed (fighter and bomber) and rotary wing aircraft types, both single ship and formation/section tactics.

1. From either the IOS or PSC, 2S6 is controlled to fire on the A‐10, and 2S6 fires.

2. By control from either the IOS or the PSC, the A‐10 reacts to the surface to air missile and dispenses chaff and flare.

1‐2. 2S6 missile misses airborne asset.

S4.7 Critical X X 3.3.3.1.1

JTC TRS shall enable the trainee to apply target corrections based on Observer to Target (OT) line and

Gun to Target (GT) line.

Trainee corrects suppression.

Rounds impact 2S6 location for effective target suppression.

S4.8 Critical X X 3.7.3.3.2

JTC TRS shall provide changing environmental effects to the visual scene and entities during a scenario so that the trainee(s) is required to make timely decisions based on the observed changes.

From the IOS, reset cloud layers to clear. Environment changes to cloudless sky.

S4.9 Critical X X 3.3.2.11.3

JTC TRS shall integrate the following types of SEAD during the execution of CAS missions per AFI 13‐112 V1

2.1 Task 03.9.2.

1. IOS Operator establishes a target of opportunity and passes target information on to Trainee.

2. Trainee identifies target of opportunity, passes targeting information to A‐10, and controls attack, employing 1xGBU‐38.

3. From the IOS/PSC, coordinate single‐ship attack employing 1x GBU‐38 from A‐10.

1‐3. Target partially damaged.

X X 3.3.2.10.5

JTC TRS shall enable the trainee(s) to control non‐ precision weapons CAS missions per AFI 13‐112 V1

Table 2.1 Task 03.10.

X X 3.7.3.3.5

Natural environment wind conditions shall affect smoke, dust, clouds, precipitation and parachute or other entities such as retarded weapons or illumination flares.

X X 3.4.2.1.1

JTC TRS shall provide audio cues for:

a) Friendly personnel (to be treated as indiscernible background noise)

b) Enemy personnel (e.g. shouted commands to be treated as indiscernible background noise)
