3P071 Volume 2 UREs 2017

The Navy's largest formation is a Fleet. A fleet is a large group of ships, submarines, and aircraft that are organized and deployed together for a specific mission or operation. It is the highest level of naval organization and can consist of multiple task forces, strike groups, and other smaller units. Fleets are responsible for conducting major operations and projecting naval power in a specific region or theater of operations.

The range is a measure of how far a projectile or weapon can travel. It is commonly measured in meters, as it is an internationally recognized unit of measurement for distance. Feet, yards, and kilometers are also units of measurement for distance, but meters are the most commonly used unit for measuring range.

Terrorist groups commonly use bombing as a tactic to cause fear, destruction, and casualties. Bombs can be placed in public areas, transportation systems, or targeted at specific individuals or buildings. This method allows terrorists to inflict maximum damage and casualties, while also attracting widespread media attention. Bombings have been used by various terrorist groups around the world, making it the most commonly employed tactic.

The given mission statement emphasizes the goal of providing land dominance in support of combatant commanders across all types of military operations and conflicts. This aligns with the primary role of the Army, which is to conduct ground warfare and land-based operations. The Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps have different missions and focus on different domains of warfare, such as maritime, air, and amphibious operations respectively. Therefore, the correct answer is the Army.

Rules of engagement (ROE) are guidelines that outline the circumstances and limitations under which military personnel are authorized to use force. These rules are established by the commander and serve as a framework for decision-making in combat situations. They ensure that military actions are conducted within the boundaries of international law and adhere to the principles of proportionality and distinction. ROE help prevent unnecessary casualties and ensure that force is used effectively and responsibly. Therefore, option c, "the use of force," is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the purpose of ROE.

Physical barriers can effectively delay intruders because they create obstacles that prevent or slow down unauthorized access. These barriers can include fences, walls, gates, and other physical structures that are designed to deter and impede intruders. By delaying intruders, security forces have more time to assess the threat, classify it, and respond appropriately. This allows for a more effective and coordinated response to potential security breaches.

In fire control, the leader controls the fire directly. This means that the leader is actively involved in directing and managing the fire, making decisions on where and how to deploy resources to combat the fire. This can include tasks such as positioning firefighters, directing the use of fire suppression equipment, and coordinating communication and resources on the ground. The leader has direct control over the firefighting operations and is responsible for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the fire control measures.

Integrated defense refers to a comprehensive and coordinated approach to protecting against threats. In this context, "defuse" means to neutralize or de-escalate a threat or potential conflict. This suggests that integrated defense does not necessarily require the capability to deny, deter, or delay an attack, but rather focuses on resolving conflicts and diffusing tensions.

The question asks for the technique that requires great patience. Out of the given options, movement with stealth requires the most patience. Stealth involves moving quietly and carefully, taking slow and deliberate steps to avoid detection. This requires a lot of patience as it involves moving slowly and cautiously, often over long periods of time.

A Base Defense Operations Center (BDOC) is considered a controlled area because it requires strict access control and security measures. The nature of the responsibilities in a BDOC, which involve coordinating and monitoring base defense operations, necessitates a controlled environment to ensure the safety and security of the base. This may involve restricted access, security clearances, and surveillance systems to maintain control over who enters and exits the area.

The term used for a terrorist group that generally operates independently of, but receives support from, one or more governments is "state-supported." This means that the group is not directly controlled or organized by the government, but the government provides assistance, such as funding, weapons, or training, to the group. This support allows the group to carry out its activities and achieve its objectives.

In fire and maneuver operations, the maneuvering forces rely mostly on their own weapons for fire support. This means that they use the weapons carried by their own team members to provide covering fire while they advance or maneuver on the battlefield. This allows the team to maintain control over their own firepower and adapt their tactics based on the situation at hand. It also ensures that the team can quickly react to changing circumstances and engage the enemy effectively.

Decoy is the correct answer because it refers to simulating an object or using a signature generator to simulate a potential target. A decoy is something that is used to distract or deceive others, often by imitating or mimicking something else. In this context, using a decoy would involve creating a simulated object or generating a signature that mimics a potential target in order to divert attention or mislead others.

The correct answer is c. High crawl. In the high crawl method of movement, the body is kept off the ground and the person rests on their forearms and lower legs. This allows for a faster movement compared to low crawl, where the body is in contact with the ground, and spider crawl, which involves moving on all fours. Rush is not a method of movement and is therefore incorrect.

The Base Defense Operations Center (BDOC) controller has the primary responsibility of knowing where all SF units are throughout the duration of the tour of duty. This is because the BDOC serves as the central command and control center for security forces operations, and it is responsible for coordinating and monitoring the activities of all SF units. The BDOC controller ensures that all SF units are accounted for and properly deployed to their assigned locations, and they maintain situational awareness to effectively respond to any security threats or emergencies.

If an emergency arises and all personnel are not accounted for, it indicates that some individuals may have chosen to stay behind instead of evacuating. This poses a threat because these individuals may be in danger or may hinder the effectiveness of the evacuation process. Therefore, the correct answer is "a. a stay behind threat."

The correct answer is d. Courier and SF representative. The question asks who must authenticate all entry authority lists (EALs) for the Primary Nuclear Airlift Force (PNAF). The EALs are lists that determine who has access and authority to enter the PNAF. Both the courier and the SF (Security Forces) representative are responsible for verifying and authenticating these lists, ensuring that only authorized personnel are granted entry.

Terrorists are defined as individuals or small groups who use a wide range of weapons, including small arms, hand grenades, rocket-propelled grenades, various small explosives, and incendiary devices. They engage in acts of violence and intimidation to achieve their political, religious, or ideological goals. This term accurately describes the behavior and tactics mentioned in the question.

The correct answer is a. Mission. The mission paragraph provides a clear and concise statement of the task to be accomplished. It outlines the overall objective and purpose of the operation, giving the reader a clear understanding of what needs to be done. The mission paragraph sets the foundation for the rest of the operations order, guiding the planning and execution of the mission.

Members requesting entry to an exclusion area must have a valid reason to be there. This means that they must have a legitimate purpose or justification for entering the exclusion area. It is not enough for them to simply have technical knowledge of the task being performed or a valid restricted area badge. Additionally, a valid entry authority list may be required for access to certain areas, but it is not the primary requirement for entry into an exclusion area. Therefore, the most important requirement for entry into an exclusion area is having a valid reason.

The M4 is the standard issue weapon for a designated marksman. This rifle is a lightweight, gas-operated, magazine-fed, air-cooled, shoulder-fired weapon that can fire in semi-automatic and three-round burst modes. It is commonly used by the U.S. military and is known for its reliability, accuracy, and versatility. The M4 is preferred for its compact size and maneuverability, making it suitable for designated marksmen who require mobility and precision in their roles. The M24, M40, and M110 are also commonly used rifles in the military, but they are typically assigned to snipers rather than designated marksmen.

Every defender must perform shoot, move, and communicate training between months 5 and 7. This suggests that this training is required on a specific timeline, indicating that it is not a one-time event. The answer options of every 4 months, between months 8 and 10, and annually with qualification do not align with the specific timeframe mentioned in the correct answer. Therefore, the correct answer is b. Between months 5 and 7.

The Rules of Engagement are guidelines that dictate the circumstances and limitations under which military forces can engage in combat. These rules are primarily driven by legal, policy, and military considerations. Legal considerations ensure that military actions comply with international laws and regulations. Policy considerations align military actions with the objectives and goals of the government or organization. Military considerations take into account the capabilities and limitations of the military forces involved. However, civilian considerations do not drive the Rules of Engagement as they are focused on the operational and strategic aspects of military actions rather than the welfare or interests of civilians.

The Base Defense Operations Center (BDOC) controller filters information up to the Flight Sergeant. This means that the Flight Sergeant is responsible for receiving and reviewing information from the BDOC controller, and then disseminating it to the appropriate individuals or departments within the organization. The Flight Sergeant acts as a central point of contact for information flow and ensures that relevant information is shared with the appropriate personnel for decision-making and action.

A relatively secure area that allows for identification of personnel and vehicles is defined as a search area. This suggests that the purpose of this area is to conduct thorough searches and inspections to ensure the security and safety of the personnel and vehicles entering or passing through it. It implies that there may be specific protocols and procedures in place to identify and verify the individuals and vehicles, possibly including searches for prohibited items or contraband.

One escort official can escort up to six people into an exclusion area.

During limited visibility conditions, dead reckoning is a technique used for navigation. Dead reckoning involves estimating one's current position based on a previously known position and the direction and distance traveled since then. This technique is particularly useful when visual references are obscured or unavailable, such as during fog, darkness, or heavy rain. By using dead reckoning, navigators can maintain a sense of direction and progress, even when visual cues are limited. Therefore, the correct answer is a. Navigation.

A Marine Corps platoon is a smaller unit compared to a squadron, group, or wing, which are typically larger units. In the Air Force, a flight is the equivalent of a platoon in the Marine Corps. Therefore, the correct answer is c. flight.

The correct answer is a. existing and reinforcing. This answer is supported by the information provided in the question, which states that the two types of obstacles typically encountered are existing and reinforcing. The other answer choices (disrupting and turning, blocking and turning, turning and fixing) are not mentioned in the question and therefore do not align with the given information.

The correct answer is Security Forces. Security Forces play a crucial role in providing the foundation for the integrated defense (ID) concept. They are responsible for protecting Air Force installations and personnel, conducting law enforcement operations, and ensuring the security of resources and assets. Their expertise in physical security, force protection, and emergency response contributes to the overall effectiveness of the ID concept.

When contact with the enemy is not likely and speed is needed, the movement technique used is traveling. This technique involves moving quickly and continuously, with the focus on covering ground efficiently rather than maintaining security. Bounding overwatch and traveling overwatch are used when contact with the enemy is expected, and they prioritize both movement and security. Squad file is a formation used for movement, but it is not specifically associated with situations where speed is needed and contact with the enemy is not likely.

The correct answer is QFEBA. QFEBA is the unit type code (UTC) that provides HQ Staff support for a medium to large deployed Security Forces unit. QFEBU, QFEPR, and QFEBF are not mentioned in the question and therefore cannot be the correct answer.

The correct answer is c. Sole vouching authority. The sole vouching authority is responsible for ensuring the need for individuals to enter an exclusion area. This means that they are the only person who can verify and authorize someone's entry into the area, ensuring that only those who have a legitimate reason to be there are allowed access. This role is important for maintaining security and safety within the exclusion area.

A ridge, draw, and spur are all potential directions of attack in military strategy, as they provide advantageous positions for an attacking force. However, a cliff is not a probable direction of attack because it is a natural obstacle that would be difficult to overcome and would not provide any strategic advantage. Therefore, option d, cliff, is not a probable direction of attack.

IDPs are plans that integrate the defense capabilities of Air Reserve and/or Air National Guard (ANG) installations/units. These plans are only accomplished by installations/units that are responsible for protection level resources. This means that only installations/units that have the responsibility to protect important resources and assets will have IDPs in place. The other options are not correct because they do not accurately describe the conditions under which IDPs are accomplished.

A launch facility (LF) is surrounded by two lines of sensors. This means that there are two layers of sensors placed around the LF to provide security and detect any unauthorized access or intrusion. Having two lines of sensors helps to enhance the security measures and ensure the safety of the launch facility.

At a minimum, two after action reports (AARs) must be submitted. This suggests that there are multiple events or scenarios that need to be analyzed and reported on. One AAR would not be sufficient to capture all the necessary information and insights. Three or four AARs would be excessive and unnecessary, as the question specifically asks for the minimum number. Therefore, the correct answer is two.

The Kirtland underground munitions maintenance storage complex (KUMMSC) is the largest storage facility for nuclear weapons. This facility is located at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico and is responsible for storing and maintaining nuclear weapons. It is an underground complex designed to ensure the security and safety of the weapons. The KUMMSC plays a crucial role in the nation's nuclear deterrence strategy by providing a secure and reliable storage facility for these weapons.

Consolidating reports involves gathering and combining information from various sources into a single report. This task is typically performed in the Analyzing Information function of a Tactical Operations Center (TOC). Analyzing information involves reviewing and interpreting data to identify trends, patterns, and insights that can inform decision-making. It is an essential function in the TOC as it helps in assessing the current situation, evaluating the effectiveness of operations, and providing recommendations for future actions.

Hostile intent is defined as the threat of imminent use of force against the U.S. and U.S. forces, including the threat to use force to preclude or impede the mission and/or duties of U.S. forces. This means that hostile intent refers to the intention or plan to use force against the U.S. or its forces, even if the force has not yet been carried out. It encompasses the potential danger and harm that may be caused by an individual or group who intends to harm U.S. forces or hinder their mission.

A Primary Nuclear Airlift Force (PNAF) carrying nuclear weapons would be afforded Type I aircraft security. This level of security is the highest and is specifically designated for aircraft carrying nuclear weapons. It includes stringent measures to ensure the safety and protection of the weapons, such as armed guards, restricted access, and advanced surveillance systems.

Security Forces (SF) must ensure that any deficiencies are identified immediately so that action can be taken to mitigate across the Air Force. This means that SF needs to be vigilant in identifying any shortcomings or weaknesses in security measures, equipment, or procedures. By identifying and addressing these deficiencies promptly, SF can help to enhance the overall security and safety of the Air Force. This proactive approach allows for timely mitigation of any potential vulnerabilities or risks that could pose a threat to the Air Force's operations and personnel.

The use of electronic control devices does not fall under combat arms or training incidents, shooting incidents, or security incidents. Instead, it is classified as a miscellaneous incident.

Machine gun gunners have an engagement priority of groups of five or more in the secondary sector. This means that when faced with multiple targets, the machine gun gunners will prioritize engaging groups of five or more enemies over other targets. This is because machine guns are highly effective at suppressing and taking out multiple targets at once, making them the ideal choice for engaging larger groups of enemies.

A raid is a type of patrol that involves conducting attacks on a position or installation and then withdrawing according to a planned strategy. This type of patrol is characterized by its offensive nature and the element of surprise. It is typically used to disrupt enemy operations, gather intelligence, or capture or destroy specific targets.

The question asks for the product that is obtained after various steps such as collecting, processing, integrating, evaluating, analyzing, and interpreting information about foreign countries or areas. The correct answer, "d. intelligence," refers to the final result of this process. Intelligence is the information that is gathered and analyzed to provide insights and knowledge about foreign countries or areas. It helps in understanding their motivations, objectives, likely tactics, and vulnerabilities, thus enabling informed decision-making and strategic planning.

When the last tasked aircraft is loaded and placed on alert, the generation area becomes an alert aircraft parking area. This means that the area is designated specifically for parking the alert aircraft, indicating that they are ready and prepared for immediate deployment if needed. The term "alert" implies a state of readiness, and by designating the area as a parking area, it suggests that the aircraft are positioned and ready for quick action.

Couriers ensure that the host installation meets two-person concept requirements and that no-lone zones are delineated around nuclear logistic aircraft. They are responsible for transporting sensitive materials and ensuring that proper security measures are followed.

Security deviations are documented on AF Form 116.

When the shooter pivots on the strong side foot to face the threat, they are performing a tactical movement known as "Contact rear." This means that the shooter is repositioning themselves to face a threat that is approaching from behind.
