Correct Answer
C. Intelligence

Explanation
Intelligence operations are key to assembling an accurate picture of the battle space. Ground defense refers to the protection of military installations on land, while clandestine operations involve secret or covert activities. Aerial operations pertain to activities conducted in the air. However, it is intelligence operations that gather and analyze information from various sources to provide a comprehensive understanding of the battle space, including enemy capabilities, intentions, and vulnerabilities. Intelligence enables effective decision-making and planning, ensuring the success of military operations.

- A.
  
  Depth
- B.
  
  Intelligence
- C.
  
  Denial capabilities
- D.
  
  All-around defense
Correct Answer
A. Depth

Explanation
Fixed bases with well-established perimeters usually have limited depth. This means that the base is not designed to have extensive underground facilities or multiple layers of defense. Instead, the focus is on securing the perimeter and ensuring that any potential threats are detected and dealt with before they can breach the outer defenses. This approach allows for effective defense within a specific area, but may lack the ability to respond to threats from different directions or to withstand prolonged attacks.

What two factors add depth to the battle outside the perimeter, allowing the base to continue its primary mission with minimal interference?
- A.
  
  Counter-reconnaissance and counterattack
- B.
  
  Counter-espionage and counterattack
- C.
  
  Counterattack and counter-resistance
- D.
  
  Counter-defense and counterattack
Correct Answer
A. Counter-reconnaissance and counterattack

Explanation
Counter-reconnaissance and counterattack add depth to the battle outside the perimeter by effectively countering enemy reconnaissance efforts and launching counterattacks against the enemy. Counter-reconnaissance involves actively seeking out and neutralizing enemy reconnaissance units, preventing them from gathering information about the base and its operations. This denies the enemy crucial intelligence and disrupts their ability to plan and execute effective attacks. In addition, counterattacks are launched to push back the enemy forces and regain control of the surrounding area, allowing the base to continue its primary mission with minimal interference.

What is not an example of a routine in defense measure?
- A.
  
  Personal hygiene, sanitation, rest, relief, and rotation
- B.
  
  Area of Operation (AO) policing for cleanliness
- C.
  
  Weapons maintenance and cleaning schedules
- D.
  
  Assign sectors of fire
Correct Answer
D. Assign sectors of fire

Explanation
Assigning sectors of fire is not an example of a routine in defense measure because it is a tactical decision made during combat operations, rather than a regular task or procedure. Routine defense measures typically involve activities such as personal hygiene, sanitation, rest, relief, rotation, weapons maintenance, and cleaning schedules. These routines are designed to maintain the readiness and effectiveness of the defense force on a regular basis.

  Establish local security
- B.
  
  Emplace obstacles and mines
- C.
  
  Prepare primary fighting positions
- D.
  
  Mark or improve marking for target reference points (TRP)
Correct Answer
A. Establish local security

Explanation
Establishing local security should always be the first priority of work because it ensures the safety and protection of the immediate surroundings. By establishing local security, individuals can identify and address any potential threats or dangers in the area, allowing for a secure and controlled environment for further work or operations to take place. This step is crucial in maintaining situational awareness and minimizing risks before proceeding with other tasks or objectives.

What should the defense force commander (DFC) consider in the sectorization scheme to provide maximum protection for base critical resources?
- A.
  
  The entire base tactical boundary
- B.
  
  The entire air base defense (ABD) plan
- C.
  
  The entire tactical area of responsibility (TAOR)
- D.
  
  The limiting factors to the defense of the air base
Correct Answer
C. The entire tactical area of responsibility (TAOR)

Explanation
The defense force commander (DFC) should consider the entire tactical area of responsibility (TAOR) in the sectorization scheme to provide maximum protection for base critical resources. This means that the DFC should take into account the entire area for which they are responsible in terms of defense and allocate resources accordingly. By considering the TAOR, the DFC can ensure that all potential threats and vulnerabilities within the area are addressed and that the base critical resources are adequately protected.

When establishing base sectors, you must ensure critical resources and areas are
- A.
  
  Located on unidentifiable terrain
- B.
  
  Split between two sectors
- C.
  
  Evenly grouped
- D.
  
  Camouflaged
Correct Answer
C. Evenly grouped

Explanation
When establishing base sectors, it is important to evenly group critical resources and areas. This ensures a balanced distribution of these resources and areas throughout the sectors, preventing any one sector from being overloaded or lacking in essential resources. By evenly grouping these resources and areas, the base sectors can operate efficiently and effectively, maximizing their potential and minimizing any vulnerabilities.

What should necessitate the need to dig hasty firing positions in the field?
- A.
  
  When you have made contact with the enemy
- B.
  
  When time and materials are not a factor
- C.
  
  When there is ample natural cover
- D.
  
  When aerial strikes are imminent
Correct Answer
A. When you have made contact with the enemy

Explanation
When you have made contact with the enemy, it is important to dig hasty firing positions in the field to provide immediate protection and cover for your troops. This allows them to engage the enemy while minimizing their exposure and vulnerability. By quickly digging firing positions, soldiers can take advantage of the natural terrain and create a defensive position that offers both concealment and protection. This helps to increase their chances of survival and success in the face of enemy fire.

Where is an excellent position to place a marksman in an urban area?
- A.
  
  A scrape out
- B.
  
  A shell crate
- C.
  
  Peak of a roof
- D.
  
  Under a parked vehicle
Correct Answer
C. Peak of a roof

Explanation
The peak of a roof is an excellent position to place a marksman in an urban area because it provides a high vantage point and a clear line of sight. Being elevated on the roof allows the marksman to have a broader view of the surroundings, making it easier to spot and engage targets. Additionally, the height advantage provides better cover and protection, as it is harder for enemies to reach or target the marksman on the roof.

- A.
  
  Provide covering fire for the assault element
- B.
  
  It's only function is with the maneuver element
- C.
  
  Provide over-head fire for maneuvering fire teams
- D.
  
  Lay down covering fire for reconnaissance elements
Correct Answer
A. Provide covering fire for the assault element

Explanation
When the machine gun is not assigned to the maneuver element, its primary mission is to provide covering fire for the assault element. This means that the machine gun is responsible for suppressing the enemy and keeping them pinned down while the assault element advances and engages the enemy. By providing covering fire, the machine gun helps to protect and support the assault element's movement and attack.
