-
the Process of selecting and prioritizing targets and matching the appropriate response to them, considering operational requirements and capabilities.
-
HVT
HPT

- 2-6
-
Name the four targeting principles.
- Achieving the Commander's Objectives
- Achieve the Desired Effects
- Command Funtion Participation of Many Disciplines
- lethal and nonlethal actions in a systematic manner
- 1-4
-
The Targeting Systematic Methodological Process
or Targeting Methodology
- Decide, Detect, Deliver, Assess
- Analyzes, prioritizes, and assigns assets.
- If the desired effects are not achieved, targets are recycled through the process.
- 1-4

-
The no-strike list consists of objects or entities protected by the following

Types of Commanders Desired Effects (D7EINS)
dc,dg,dl,dn,dst,dsr,dv,exp,int,neu,sup
deceive, degrade, delay, deny, destroy, disrupt, divert, exploit, interdict, neutralize, and suppress.
-
cause a person to believe what is not true
deceive
-
nonlethal or temporary means to reduce the effectiveness or efficiency of adversary command and control systems and information collection efforts
degrade
-
slow the time of arrival of enemy forces
To delay
-
withhold information about Army force capabilities and intentions that adversaries need for effective and timely decisionmaking
To deny
-
apply lethal combat power on an enemy capability so that it can no longer perform any function and cannot be restored to a usablecondition
to destroy
-
interrupt or impede enemy or adversary capabilities or systems
To disrupt
-
force the enemy or adversary to change course or direction
To divert
-
to gain access to adversary command and control systems to collect information or to plant false or misleading information
To exploit
-
divert, disrupt, delay, or destroy the enemy’s military surface capability before it can be used effectively against friendly forces
To interdict
-
render enemy personnel or material incapable of interfering with a particular operation
To neutralize
-
temporarily degrade the performance of a force or weapons system below the level needed to accomplish the mission
To suppress
-

-
Known to exist in the operational environment, but no action has been planned against them. (what is it?)
-
JFC designated target requiring immediate response because it is a highly lucrative, fleeting target of opportunity
- TIME-SENSITIVE TARGET
- 1-15
