Range OverlayMASTER GUNNER COURSE

TERMINAL LEARNING OBJECTIVE

ACTION: Construct a Range Overlay

CONDITIONS: Given 1:25,000, scaled map, straight edge, grid coordinate scale, map ruler, tracing paper, and mechanical pencil.

STANDARDS: The student must construct a Range OverlayBy plotting all Targets, Firing Positions and Left and Right Limits accurately to within 20 meters using 8 Digit grid Coordinates, within 75 minutes.


ENABLING LEARNING OBJECTIVE:1

ACTION: Find Land

CONDITION : In a classroom environment.

STANDARD: Students must recognize considerations to resource land.


Steps to Finding land

1. Training area

2. Size of land for specific training

3. Usage and type of Ammunition and Pyro

4. Airspace

5. Interference with other training areas

6. Engineer assets

7. Impact area

8. Terrain analysis

9. Distance X

10. 2 mils of Backstop for vehicles equipped with LRF



ACTION: Terrain Analysis

CONDITIONS: In a classroom environment.

STANDARDS: The student will construct a Terrain analysis.


• SLIDE OF TERRAIN ANALYSIS


Terrain analysis

WHY DO ONE?

1. To view a piece of terrain from 2 known points as seen from the side.

2. To identify terrain changes to a relative scale

3. Aid in range development and safety investigations

4. Aid in proper target placement



ACTION: Determine 15 Degree elevation of weapon system using terrain analysis

CONDITIONS: In a classroom environment, given a terrain analysis.

STANDARD: The student will determine 15 degree elevation of weapon systems.


Terrain analysis to determine elevation1. Identify the start and end point of your training facility.

2. Draw a straight line on the map.

3. Using graph paper, identify the major changes in contour level ie.. Hilltops, ridges and low ground.

4. Connect the dots.

5. Shade in the high and low elevation areas.

Determine 15 degree elevation of weapon system using graph paper.

1. Using your graph paper- determine target placement due to safety considerations

As well as

a. If Target exceeds 15 degrees

b. Proper backstop for projectiles

c. Proper backstop for LRF

d. Identify impact area



ACTION: Determine 2 mils of backstop

CONDITION: In a classroom environment.

Standards: The student must gain the knowledge of how to obtain 2 mils of backstop.


Determine 2 mils of backstop for vehicles with LRF.

1. Backstop is used for an accurate return from the Laser Range Finder.

2. It is also used for SAFETY!!!!

3. M1 Tanks do not have Eye safe capability and this is another consideration that must be addressed.

4. To ensure that the Backstop is 2 mils- You can use the FT 25-A-2, or use the Bradley reticle to check this.

5. Put the Bradley into EACH BP intended for firing and check EACH target.




CONDITIONS: In a classroom environment, given a straight edge, grid coordinate scale, map, ruler, tracing paper, bar compass, and two #2 pencils.

STANDARDS: Within 75 minutes construct a range. All targets, firing positions, left and right limits must be plotted accurately within 20 meters.

VEHICLE TARGET RULESOF CANTING

• Rule 1: If the plotted position is within 80 meters of a grid line (on a scale of 1:25,000)

• Rule 2: If the tick mark that is to be constructed interferes with a previously constructed tick mark, the new tick mark should be canted 45 degrees (800 mils) counter clockwise to avoid confusion.
