Appendix B B-4 ATP 3-09.12 26 October 2021 (RADAR) (BTRY FDC) Did hit grid _321654_______, over. (BRTY) FDC Did hit grid_321654___, out. B-7. At this point, repeat the last six steps until the necessary number of good rounds have been observed by radar. BN FDC will end mission- (BN FDC)(Radar) and (BTRY FDC), this is (BN FDC), End of mission, over. (RADAR)End of mission, out. (BTRY) FDCEnd of mission, out. Note. Height of burst for radar registrations is the height of registration point plus height of ground above sea level (The height of the registration point above sea level). Radar will forward did hit information for each to BN and or BTRY FDC via normal mode of communication. OPERATOR VOICE ADJUST FIRE MISSION B-8. The following is an example for performing a radar adjust fire mission using voice communications: (RADAR) (BN FDC), this is (radar), hostile weapon (number and type of possible) firing, at grid _234567__, Altitude _369___, Time 1455 over. BN FDC Hostile weapons firing at grid _234567__, out. BN FDC (BTRY FDC), this is (BN FDC), conduct adjust fire mission with (radar), at grid _234567__, altitude _369___, over. (BTRY) FDC Conduct (radar) fire mission, at grid _234567__, altitude __369____, out. (BTRY) FDC (radar), this is (BTRY FDC), authenticate __WH_____, over. (RADAR) I Authenticate__NC_______, out. (BTRY) FDC (radar), this is (BTRY FDC), max ord _562__, QE_521_, altitude _369___. Request ready to observe, over. Note. (BTRY) will also have to provide grid and altitude of firing BTRY (center gun) if radar does not have this information already. (RADAR) MAX ORD _562__, QE _521___, ALTITUDE _369____ out. (At this point, wait while Radar loads their computer with information.) (RADAR) (BTRY FDC) this is (radar). Ready to observe request shot and splash, 1 round, over. (BTRY) FDC Request shot and splash, 1 round, out (wait for guns to fire). (BTRY) FDC (BTRY), shot, over. (RADAR) (BTRY), shout out. (BTRY) FDC (BTRY), splash, over. (RADAR) (BTRY), splash out. (RADAR) (BTRY FDC, did hit grid is _42259632__, over. (BTRY) FDC Did hit grid _42259632_, out (At this point, BTRY makes corrections.) Note. Subsequent adjust rounds may be required. (RADAR)(BTRY FDC), this is (radar), fire for effect, request shot and splash, over. (BTRY) FDCFire for effect, request shot and splash, out. B-9. Radar will follow the mission, like a friendly fire mission, to compile did-hit information at this point: (BTRY) FDC (BTRY FDC), shot, over. (RADAR) (BTRY FDC), shot, out. (BTRY) FDC (BTRY FDC), splash, over. (RADAR) (BTRY FDC), splash, out.
