What is achieved by the balanced employment of firepower and patrolling?
- A.
  
  Key terrain
- B.
  
  Defense in depth
- C.
  
  All around defense
- D.

Explanation
The balanced employment of firepower and patrolling achieves aggressive defense. Aggressive defense involves actively engaging and attacking the enemy, rather than solely relying on passive defensive measures. By combining firepower, which refers to the use of weapons and artillery, with patrolling, which involves actively monitoring and securing the area, an aggressive defense strategy can be implemented. This approach aims to disrupt and deter the enemy's advances, maintaining control and dominance over the battlefield.

A force can dominate an area, place direct or indirect fire on critical resources by capturing?
- A.
  
  Key terrain
- B.
  
  High grounds

By capturing key terrain, a force can establish a dominant position and have better control over the surrounding area. This allows them to place direct or indirect fire on critical resources, such as supply routes or enemy positions, and potentially disrupt or neutralize them. Therefore, capturing key terrain enables a force to exert its influence and potentially dominate an area.

Correct Answer
B. Aining point

Explanation
The correct answer is "aining point". An aiming point refers to a specific target or area that a shooter focuses on when delivering accurate fire. By aiming at a specific point, the shooter can ensure precise targeting and increase the effectiveness of their fire. This allows for better accuracy and increases the chances of hitting the intended target.

What is the greatest limitation in using the 100 meters method of range determination?
- A.
  
  Observer proficiency requires constant practice
- B.
  
  SF member must pace the range to see if his estimation is correct
- C.
  
  Underestimating sloping ground gives the illusion of a greater distance
- D.
  
  Accuracy is directly related to amount of terrain visible to the observor
Correct Answer
D. Accuracy is directly related to amount of terrain visible to the observor

Explanation
The greatest limitation in using the 100 meters method of range determination is that accuracy is directly related to the amount of terrain visible to the observer. This means that if the observer has a limited view of the terrain, it becomes difficult to accurately estimate the range. The more terrain that is visible, the easier it is to gauge the distance accurately.

How does the observore use off center vision when viewing an object during limited visibility?
- A.
  
  Look 5 degrees above, below or to either side rather then directily at it
- B.
  
  Look 10 degrees above, below or to either side rather then directily at it
- C.
  
  Look 15 degrees above, below rather then directily at it
- D.
  
  Look 20 degrees to either side rather then directily at it
Correct Answer
B. Look 10 degrees above, below or to either side rather then directily at it

Explanation
The observer uses off-center vision by looking 10 degrees above, below, or to either side of the object rather than directly at it. This allows the observer to utilize their peripheral vision, which is more sensitive to detecting objects in limited visibility conditions. By looking slightly off-center, the observer can enhance their ability to perceive the object and gather more information about its surroundings.

If you adapted to the dark before donning goggles, you will gain full dark adaption within how many minutes after removing the goggles?
- A.
  
  8
- B.
  
  5
- C.
  
  4
- D.
  
  2
Correct Answer
D. 2

Explanation
If you adapted to the dark before donning goggles, it means that your eyes have already adjusted to the low light conditions. When you remove the goggles, your eyes will not need much time to readjust to the darkness because they were already adapted to it. Therefore, it will take only 2 minutes for you to gain full dark adaption after removing the goggles.

When burying the TMS magnetic sensor, how deep perpendicular to the avenue of approach must you bury the magnetic sensor head?
- A.
  
  2 to 4 inches
- B.
  
  4 to 6 inches
- C.
  
  6 to 8 inches
- D.
  
  8 to 10 inches
Correct Answer
C. 6 to 8 inches

Explanation
The TMS magnetic sensor should be buried 6 to 8 inches deep perpendicular to the avenue of approach. This depth ensures that the sensor is properly positioned to detect and measure the magnetic field. Burying it too shallow may result in inaccurate readings, while burying it too deep may reduce its sensitivity to magnetic fluctuations. Therefore, burying the sensor at a depth of 6 to 8 inches is the optimal range for accurate and reliable measurements.

The Elec 864M1E long-range passive infrared sensors detection capability can be degraded in?
- A.
  
  In snowy conditions
- B.
  
  Dense fog
- C.
  
  Rainy weather
- D.
  
  Bright sunlight
Correct Answer
B. Dense fog

Explanation
The Elec 864M1E long-range passive infrared sensors detection capability can be degraded in dense fog. This is because dense fog reduces visibility and can obstruct the infrared waves emitted by the sensors. As a result, the sensors may struggle to accurately detect and track objects in such conditions.

What is the WSTI used for?
- A.
  
  Alarm annunciation and visual inspection
- B.
  
  Sensor identification and recognition
- C.
  
  To assess the alarms of a sensor activation
- D.
  
  Boundary protection
Correct Answer
C. To assess the alarms of a sensor activation

Explanation
The WSTI (Wireless Sensor Technology Interface) is used to assess the alarms of a sensor activation. This means that it is responsible for analyzing and evaluating the alarms triggered by the activation of a sensor. It helps in determining the severity and urgency of the alarm, allowing appropriate actions to be taken in response. The WSTI plays a crucial role in ensuring effective monitoring and response to sensor activations.

How many people are required to set up the wide area surveillance thermal imager tripod?
- A.
  
  1
- B.
  
  2
- C.
  
  3
- D.
  
  4
Correct Answer
C. 3

Explanation
Three people are required to set up the wide area surveillance thermal imager tripod. This suggests that the setup process involves tasks that cannot be accomplished by a single person or a pair of individuals. The presence of three people may be necessary to ensure the stability and proper positioning of the tripod, as well as to handle any additional equipment or tools that may be required during the setup process.

The primary purpose of the LRTI-CCTV is to?
- A.
  
  Provide full color imagery and video
- B.
  
  Provide communication and data to the base defense operation center
- C.
  
  Allow you to view the enemy from long distances
- D.
  
  Assess alarms annunciating from the TASS system
Correct Answer
D. Assess alarms annunciating from the TASS system

Explanation
The primary purpose of the LRTI-CCTV is to assess alarms annunciating from the TASS system. This means that the LRTI-CCTV is used to monitor and evaluate any alarms or alerts that are triggered by the TASS system. It is not primarily used for providing full color imagery and video, providing communication and data to the base defense operation center, or allowing you to view the enemy from long distances.
