FM/BS-729.V2.00 - Request IDF supression
Request a suppression fire mission in one transmission in contrast to the regular CFF procedure:
[callsign of mortar/artillery battery], [callsign of FO], [type of mission], [target location]
| Type of mission | Meaning |
|---|---|
| IMMEDIATE SUPPRESSION | The FO requires HE suppression of a position as soon as possible. The grid method is preferred for target location, but any method is valid. |
| IMMEDIATE SMOKE | The FO requests smoking a position as soon as possible. The grid method is preferred for target location, but any method is valid. |
| SUPPRESSION | The FO requests suppression of a pre-planned target with an amount and duration as briefed, e.g. in the scheme of fires. |
The correct readback of the transmission by the battery authorises the fire mission.
