7.4.7.2 Target Location

The SEAD mission panel provides the facility to specify the Suppression and Mark targets separately

for effective use and execution of SEAD missions. Each of the two target locations specified are

capable of specifying GRID, POLAR and SHIFT targets.

Selection to use either of the targets is also possible by checking or unchecking the checkbox next to

Suppression or Mark. A mission can be fired by selecting either the Suppression or Mark only, and by

also selecting both Suppression and Mark.

If one selection is made to either Suppression or Mark, the instructor’s marker would be placed

respectively for the Suppression target or the Mark target. However, if both are selected, the

instructor’s marker will only be placed for the Mark target.

7.4.7.3 Ammo/Fuse Combination

For Suppression rounds, all ammunition and fuse types are made available for selection.

Mark will be fired by selecting Illum, WP, HE or SMOKE. For Mark, the default set fuse type is Quick.

7.4.7.4 Distribution

Suppression Distribution may be selected; all available distributions in VBS3Fires are made available

for SEAD missions.

Mark rounds are default set to converged distribution.

7.4.7.5 Method of Fire and Control

To engage SEAD missions, three methods of engagement times can be selected.

1. Continuous

Continuous time of engagement is a fixed allocated time of fire. Spanning over a timeline between -

1:00 to +1:00 for suppression and a mark round fired at -00:45 for Illum or Mark fired at -00:30 for

WP, at the rate of 2 rounds per minute.
