3DX7X Vol 2: Unit 1

In 1998, all armed forces broadcasting affiliates merged under the American Forces Network (AFN). This merger allowed for a more streamlined and efficient broadcasting system for the armed forces, ensuring that all members had access to the same quality programming and information regardless of their location. By consolidating the broadcasting affiliates, the AFN was able to provide a consistent and reliable source of news, entertainment, and communication for military personnel around the world.

The Air and Space Expeditionary Force Reporting Tool (ART) measures readiness categories to assess the preparedness of the Air and Space Expeditionary Force. These categories include training, personnel, and equipment condition. The home station mission, however, is not a readiness category measured by ART.

The career field 3D0X3, Cyber Surety, is not a career field assigned to engineering installation units. The other career fields listed (3D1X2, Cyber Transport Systems; 3D1X3, RF Transmission Systems; and 3D1X7, Cable and Antenna Systems) are all related to engineering installation units and their responsibilities.

The typical pay grade of the deployed Contingency Response Group commander is O-6. The pay grade O-6 corresponds to the rank of Colonel in the United States military. This indicates that the commander holds a high-ranking position within the group and is responsible for overseeing operations and making critical decisions.

The correct answer is Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD). This capability is not an initial capability of the open the airbase force module. Force protection, airfield operations, and force accountability are all initial capabilities of the module, but EOD is not included. EOD refers to the specialized task of safely identifying, neutralizing, and disposing of explosive ordnance, and it is not a primary function of the airbase force module.

The Contingency Response Wing headquarters is located at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ. This information is stated directly in the given options. Scott AFB, IL, Travis AFB, CA, and Peterson AFB, CO are not mentioned as the headquarters location, so they are incorrect answers.

The AFPC Aerospace Expeditionary Forces (AEF) Center initiates the requirements or deployment sourcing process. This center is responsible for managing and coordinating the deployment of Air Force personnel and resources for various missions. They ensure that the necessary requirements and resources are identified and sourced to support the deployment process effectively.

The correct answer is "Joint force/capability". This type of Joint Expeditionary Tasking (JET) tasking involves one service providing a force or capability to perform the core mission of another service. In other words, it is a collaborative effort where one service temporarily takes over the responsibilities of another service to ensure the mission is accomplished effectively. This allows for flexibility and resource sharing among different branches of the military.

The correct answer is Facility condition. SORTS measures and reports on various areas such as training, personnel, and equipment condition. However, it does not specifically focus on the condition of facilities.

In the operate the air base module, the maximum distance an extended site can be located from the base Network Control Center Deployed (NCC-D) is 16 km. This means that any extended site within a 16 km radius from the NCC-D can be effectively controlled and managed. Beyond this distance, the NCC-D may face difficulties in maintaining proper communication and control over the extended site.

The correct answer is 85 Engineering Installation Squadron (EIS). This unit is the only one mentioned in the options that provides specialized engineering support in telecommunications and electromagnetic spectrum field analysis. Additionally, it is stated that this unit supports a 72-hour rapid response force during a crisis, further confirming that it is the correct answer.

Deliberate planning is the correct answer because it involves developing predetermined responses to potential crises, determining the forces required to achieve objectives, preparing deployment plans, and continually evaluating selected courses of action. This process is systematic and comprehensive, allowing for thorough analysis and consideration of various factors before making decisions and taking action. It helps ensure that resources are effectively utilized and objectives are achieved in a strategic and organized manner.

The RQ-11B Raven is categorized as a small unmanned aerial system (UAS) because it is a lightweight and portable drone that is typically used for short-range reconnaissance and surveillance missions. It is designed to be easily deployed and operated by a small team, making it suitable for tactical operations. The other options listed, such as the MQ-9 Reaper, MQ-1B Predator, and RQ-4B Global Hawk, are larger and more advanced UAS that are used for long-range and high-altitude missions.

The key capabilities for establishing control in the Command and Control module are secure communications and intelligence. This means that in order to effectively establish control, it is crucial to have secure communication channels in place to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of information. Additionally, intelligence is essential for making informed decisions and understanding the operational environment. By having access to reliable and timely intelligence, commanders can better assess the situation, allocate resources, and execute missions effectively, ultimately establishing control over the situation.

Pilot Units develop logistics details (LOGDETS) to allow for 30 days of sustainment for unit type codes (UTC). This means that the responsibility lies with the pilot units to plan and coordinate the necessary logistics support to ensure that a unit can sustain itself for a period of 30 days. This includes activities such as transportation, supply chain management, and maintenance support. By taking on this responsibility, pilot units can ensure that they have the necessary resources and capabilities to operate effectively in various scenarios and environments.

Combat support is not a division of the Air and Space Operations Center. This is because combat support refers to the activities and resources provided to the combat units, such as logistics, intelligence, and medical support. In contrast, the Air and Space Operations Center focuses on the planning, coordination, and execution of air and space operations. While combat plans, strategy, and combat operations are all integral parts of the Air and Space Operations Center, combat support falls outside of its scope.

The airbase force module is expected to arrive within 2 days after the airbase is opened. The estimated time for the delivery to be complete is 14 days.

Volume 1 provides a consolidated reference source for general policies and guidance for mobilization planning and the support of combat forces in time of war. This volume is likely to contain comprehensive information and instructions on how to effectively mobilize and support combat forces during wartime.

The correct answer is Command and Control. Command and Control force module supported by Theater Deployable Communications (TDC) is established within 48 hours and supports 50 to 150 users in a café environment. This force module is responsible for coordinating and directing military operations, ensuring effective communication and control of resources in a given area.

The correct answer is 10-244. This is because the question asks for the governing guidance for the Air and Space Expeditionary Force Reporting Tool (ART) reporting. Among the options provided, AFI 10-244 is the only one that pertains to reporting. The other options do not specifically address reporting in relation to the ART tool.

The force module that facilitates integration of open the airbase and command and control force module capabilities to enable the airfield to generate air support to accomplish its assigned mission is "Establish the airbase". This force module is responsible for setting up the necessary infrastructure, facilities, and resources at the airbase to support air operations. It involves activities such as constructing runways, hangars, fuel storage facilities, and establishing communication systems. By establishing the airbase, the necessary conditions are created for the airfield to generate air support and carry out its mission effectively.

AFI 10-201 provides detailed information and instructions on Designated Operational Capability (DOC) statements.

The force module that contains support forces that would generally not arrive until 30 days after the deployed location is established is the "Generate the mission" force module. This module involves planning and preparing for the mission, including determining the required resources and support forces. Since the support forces would not arrive until 30 days after the location is established, it suggests that they are part of the initial planning and preparation phase rather than the immediate deployment and operation of the airbase.
