Welcome.

I'm Colonel Ryan Baker Callsign "Sabre" and will be your Flight Examiner (FE) for
this Performance Objective.

TAC12 - Stationary and Moving Target Tasking is the second mission of the Tactical Training
Qualification Course for the A/OA-10C.

Your grading will be based on the following in accordance with the A/OA-10 Aircrew Evaluation
Criteria: AFI11-2A-OA-10V2:

3.4 Tactical Employment

3.4.1. General
3.4.1.12. Area 62--Training Rules/ Rules of Engagement (ROE):
3.4.1.12.1. Qualified (Q): Adhered to and knowledgeable of all training rules/ROE.
3.4.1.12.2. Qualified Minus (Q-): Minor deviations. Made timely and positive corrections. Did
not jeopardize safety of flight.
3.4.1.12.3. Unqualified (U): Significant deviations indicating a lack of knowledge of training
rules/ROE.

3.4.3. Air-to-Surface:
3.4.3.1. Area 81--Target Acquisition:
3.4.3.1.1. Qualified (Q): Target acquired on the first attack or, if missed due to difficult
target identification features, a successful re-attack was accomplished. For multiple target
scenarios, all targets were acquired on the first attack or with a successful re-attack.
3.4.3.1.2. Qualified Minus (Q-): Late to acquire the target, degraded the initial attack or
re-attack. For multiple target scenarios, 50 percent or more of the targets were acquired on
the first attack or with a successful re-attack.
3.4.3.1.3. Unqualified (U): Target was not acquired. For multiple target scenarios, less than
50 percent of the
targets were acquired on the first attack or with a successful re-attack. A successful
re-attack is defined as being within parameters to effectively employ the planned weapons
against the target.

3.4.3.3. Area 83--Range Procedures:

3.4.3.3.1. Qualified (Q): Used proper procedures for entering and exiting the range. Range
operations followed established procedures.
3.4.3.3.2. Qualified MInus (Q-): Minor deviations from established procedures for range entry,
exit or operations.
3.4.3.3.3. Unqualified (U): Major deviations from established procedures for range entry, exit
or operations.

3.4.7. Forward Air Control:

3.4.7.1. Area 121--Target Area Identification:
3.4.7.1.1. Qualified (Q): Acquired the target and positively confirmed target and friendly
location.
3.4.7.1.2. Qualified Minus (Q-): Minor delays in acquiring target, but positively confirmed
location. Mission effectiveness was not compromised.
3.4.7.1.3. Unqualified (U): Failed to locate or did not positively confirm target location.

3.4.7.2. Area 122--Tactical Air Control System (TACS) Coordination:

3.4.7.2.1. Qualified (Q): Effected timely coordination with all appropriate agencies to include
strike clearance.
3.4.7.2.2. Qualified Minus (Q-): Coordinated with all appropriate agencies; however, not in a
timely, effective manner. Delays caused by untimely coordination did not affect mission
accomplishment. Strike clearance was received prior to initiating the attack.
3.4.7.2.3. Unqualified (U): Did not coordinate with all appropriate agencies. Commenced attack
without strike clearance. Delays caused by untimely coordination rendered the mission
ineffective.

This PO will require you to coordinate with Airborne FACs and Ground JTACs to destroy specific
targets. You must kill all of the identified targets to pass this PO.

We will be operating within a defined Military Operations Area (MOA) and using the Vaziani
Training Area and Firing Range (VTA).

The pattern altitude for landing is 2500' AGL.

The Hard Deck Restriction is in effect at 5000' AGL. Inside the VTA Range the Hard Deck
Restriction is lowered to 100' AGL.

There are 12 No Fire Zones within the Range. Weapons release is not permitted in these zones
unless specifically authorized. This is to simulate Urban Combat and related ROEs.

EPLRS enabled Observers are placed in each of the zones to record any violations. Do not
violate these restrictions unless they are terminated.

I'll be your wingman on this flight to record your comms and attack runs.

Since this is a night mission ensure you keep your NVGs handy.

Good luck Airman!
