    Which capability library contains a fixed capacity that at any given time identifies forces that constitute the total force that has been made available or allocated for scheduling?

    • Unit type code (UTC).

    • Air expeditionary force (AEF)

    • Global Force Management (GFM).

    • Unit manpower document (UMD).

    Correct Answer
    A. Air expeditionary force (AEF)
    Explanation
    The Air expeditionary force (AEF) capability library contains a fixed capacity that at any given time identifies forces that constitute the total force that has been made available or allocated for scheduling. This means that the AEF library keeps track of the forces that are ready and available for deployment or other operational tasks. The other options, Unit type code (UTC), Global Force Management (GFM), and Unit manpower document (UMD), do not specifically refer to a fixed capacity that identifies forces for scheduling.

    • One

    • Two

    • Four

    • Six

    Correct Answer
    A. One
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "one" because the question is asking for the number of AEF blocks and pairs in the AEF vulnerability period. Since the question does not provide any specific information about the number of blocks and pairs in each tempo band, we can assume that there is only one AEF block and one AEF pair in the vulnerability period.

    A guideline used to determine when a unit type code (UTC) must be developed is when

    • New equipment needs to be replaced

    • New equipment types enter the inventory

    • No program changes occur in manpower or equipment

    • Deployable units experience no change in either operational concept or mission

    Correct Answer
    A. New equipment types enter the inventory
    Explanation
    When new equipment types enter the inventory, it is necessary to develop a unit type code (UTC) as the existing UTCs may not be applicable for the new equipment. This is because each UTC is specific to a particular type of equipment or unit, and when new equipment is introduced, a new UTC needs to be developed to accurately define and classify the unit. This ensures that the unit is properly organized, staffed, and equipped according to its specific requirements.

    Rate this question:

  • 46. 

    In addition to Headquarters Air Force (HAF), which agencies usually initiate the development of a unit type code (UTC)?

    • FAM, MAJCOM, Air National Guard (ANG), FOA, and DRU

    • ANG, FAM, MAJCOM, FOA, and NAF

    Correct Answer
    A. FAM, MAJCOM, Air National Guard (ANG), FOA, and DRU
    Explanation
    The correct answer is FAM, MAJCOM, Air National Guard (ANG), FOA, and DRU. These agencies are responsible for initiating the development of a unit type code (UTC) along with Headquarters Air Force (HAF).

    • Time phased force deployment data

    • Unit type code

    Correct Answer
    A. Unit type code
    Explanation
    Unit type code is the correct answer because it is a fundamental component used in force planning and the deployment of air and space expeditionary task forces. Unit type codes are alphanumeric codes that represent specific types of military units, such as aircraft squadrons or support units. These codes help to identify the capabilities and resources of each unit, allowing for effective planning and coordination of forces during deployments.

    • President.

    • Chief of staff

    • Secretary of defense.

    • Secretary of the Air Force

    Correct Answer
    A. Chief of staff
    Explanation
    The Chief of Staff has the authority to approve deviations to the air and space expeditionary force (AEF) construct on a case-by-case basis. This means that any changes or modifications to the AEF construct can be made with the approval of the Chief of Staff. The President, Secretary of Defense, and Secretary of the Air Force may have their own roles and responsibilities in the decision-making process, but the final approval for deviations lies with the Chief of Staff.

    The concept of mobilization is associated with “calling up” Reserve Component forces. What does “calling up” do, if anything, to the active duty’s military capability?

    • Increases military capability

    • Decreases military capability

    • Military capability stays the same

    • Enhances the number of Reserve Component forces.

    Correct Answer
    A. Increases military capability
    Explanation
    Calling up Reserve Component forces increases the active duty's military capability. This is because mobilization allows for the deployment of additional trained and ready personnel from the Reserve Component to supplement the active duty forces. These reservists bring their skills, experience, and expertise to enhance the overall military capability and readiness of the active duty forces.
