Question

The observer adjusts only the center weapon onto the center grid of the FPF when adjusting for an automated FDC that uses muzzle velocity variations and special corrections.

a) True
b) False

Answer 1

The observer adjusts both the center weapon and the center grid of the FPF when adjusting for an automated FDC.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement, 'The observer adjusts only the center weapon onto the center grid of the FPF when adjusting for an automated FDC that uses muzzle velocity variations and special corrections', is False.

When adjusting for an automated Fire Direction Control (FDC) that uses muzzle velocity variations and special corrections, the observer adjusts both the center weapon and the center grid of the Final Protective Fires (FPF). This ensures that the weapon is accurately aimed at the intended target. It takes into account the variations in muzzle velocity and applies the necessary corrections to achieve the desired accuracy.
