| Explain the 4 D's for NATO Engagement? |
|
Definition
Detection-SPQ-9B or Air seasrch radars detect the contact and establish it's position. This information is sent to SSDS.
Direction- SSDS relays target information to NATO, and the weapons system positions director to "paint" the target.
Delivery- Proper firing voltages are set, and one or more ESSM's are fired to intercept the "painted" target.
Destruction-The missile(s) intercept the targetand either impact (skin to skin) or destroy by a focused blast. |
