Attack Systems Capabilities 1 March 2016 ATP 3-09.42 A-17 Figure A-2. Minefield safety zone determination (example) Using the Mine Safety Template. Note: the minefield template cannot be copied directly and converted to a training aid due to distortions introduced during the copy process. The template serves as a guide for the training support facility preparing the template. Dimensions of the minefields must be checked against known minefield size prior to the template’s use. A-67. Enter the template (figure A-3 on page A-18) with the following fired minefield data: Technique (meteorological data + velocity error/transfer or observer adjust). Trajectory (high or low angle). Type projectile fired (remote antiarmor munition systems or area denial antipersonnel mines). Range (to minefield center). Aimpoint coordinates (center or left and right). A-68. Center the selected template safety zone square over the aimpoint(s). Draw a square to establish the minefield safety zone. See the example completed DA Form 5032 (Field Artillery Minefield Planning Sheet) reverse side at figure A-4 on page A-19.
