7.4.7.6 Execute

After specifying the required method of engagement, the method of executing a SEAD mission is by

providing the minute for CAS TOT. The CAS TOT minute specified refers to the minute at which the

Air Strike mission will take place. When the battery receives the CAS TOT value it is kept as a

reference for the Fire mission to take place.

For example:

Image 7.125 Simulation Status Time

The view of the CAS TOT panel is based on the selection made at the serial table in the Instructor

Control Panel.

Image 7.126 CAS TOT Minute to fire - Suppression

Image 7.127 CAS TOT Minute to fire - Mark

Referring to this example, when the Simulation Status time was at 12:00:00, the CAS TOT was given

“10”, which means the CAS TOT will be 12:10:00. Countdown to projectiles’ detonation of the SEAD

mission is to 12:09:00 of the Simulation Time. This is the method of execution for Continuous and

Interrupted missions.

For Non-Standard, user specified times, the execution of the fire serial would be according to the

start and end times specified. If for a Non-Standard mission suppression start time -02:00 to End

time +02:00 was given with a mark at -01:00, the execution time in SEAD mission would be to time

12:08:00.
