Question	Answer
• DESCRIBE control measures.	directives given graphically or orally by a commander to subordinate commands to assign responsibilities, coordinate fires and maneuvers, and control combat operations. The tactical situation governs their use. (Boundaries, PL, FSS, FSA)
FSS	o  an exact location at sea from which a fire support ship delivers fires. (Control Measure)
FSA	• ) An appropriate maneuver area assigned to fire support ships by the maritime commander. From this area, ships deliver surface fire support to an operation ashore (Control Measure)
PL	• - Identifies limits of advance, monitors rates of movement, controls fires (when dually designated as an FSCM), and defines an AO (Control Measure)
Boundaries	are lines defining surface Area of Operations (AO) between adjacent units and/or formations (Control Measure)
• DESCRIBE permissive Fire Support Coordination Measures (FSCMs).	 authorize the attack of targets without clearance from the ground commander if certain circumstances are met.
Define the 5 Permissive Fire Support Coordination Measures	FFA (Free Fire Area), Kill Box, FSCL (Fire Support Coordination Line), Battlefield Coordination Line, Coordinated Fire Line,
FFA	Free Fire Area - specifically designated area into which any weapon system may fire without additional coordination with the establishing HQ. It is used to expedite fires and to facilitate jettison of aircraft munitions
Kill Box	allows lethal attack against surface targets without further coordination with the establishing commander and without terminal attack control.
Blue Kill Box	permits DAS in the kill box without further coordination from the establishing HQ
Purple Kill Box	permits DAS in the kill box without further coordination from the establishing HQ while allowing land and maritime component commanders to employ surface-to-surface indirect fires.
FSCL	- Facilitates the expeditious engagement of targets of opportunity beyond the coordinating measure
CFL	- Expedites the surface-to-surface engagement of targets beyond the measure without coordination with the land commander in whose AO the targets are located
BCL	- Allows MAGTF aviation to attack surface targets without approval of a GCE commander in whose area the targets may be located
Name the Restrictive Fire Support Coordination Measures	No Fire Area (NFA), Restrictive Fire Area (RFA), Zone of Fire (ZF), Airspace Coordination Area (ACA), Restrictive Fire Line (RFL)
ACA	- Ensures aircrew safety and effective use of indirect supporting surface fires by deconfliction of time and space
ZF	Assigned to gunfire support ships and units as a means to coordinate their efforts with each other and with the scheme of maneuver of the supported ground unit
RFA	Regulates fires into an area according to the stated restrictions
RFL	Prevents fratricide and duplication of engagements between converging friendly forces
NFA	Prohibits fires or their effects into an area
Airspace Coordination Measures	employ the efficient use of airspace to accomplish missions while simultaneously providing safeguards for friendly forces.
Name the Airspace Coordination Measures Types	CORRTE (Air Corridor, Route), ADAREA (Air Defense Area), ADOA (Air Defense Operations, Area ), ATC (Air Traffic Control), PROC (Procedural Control), REFPT (Reference Point), ROZ (Restricted Operations Zones), SUA (Special Use Airspace)
CORRTE	A bidirectional or restricted air route of travel specified for use by aircraft
ADAREA	An area and the airspace above it within which procedures are established to minimize mutual interference between air- and ground-based/Army air defense and other operations
SUA	Airspace defined for a specific purpose or to designate airspace in which no flight activity is organized
ROZ	Airspace reserved for specific activities in which the operation of one or more airspace uses is restricted
REFPT	A point or set of coordinates generally used for control purposes or to indicate a reference position
ATC	Airspace of defined dimension within which air traffic control service is provided to IFR and VFR flights in accordance with civil air traffic control regulations and VFR flights in accordance with civil air traffic control regulations,
Name Airspace Coordination Measures in relation to ground operations and fire integration	•Air control point,Air Corridor(AIRCOR) Amphibious Objective Area(AOA)•Contact Point(CP),•Coordinating altitude•Drop Zone (DZ)•High-Density Airspace Control Zone (HIDACZ)•Landing Zone (LZ)•Minimum-Risk Route (MRR)•Pickup Zone(PZ)•Restricted Ops Area
What is a phase line?	recognizable terrain feature extending across the zone of action
What identifies limits of advance, Monitor rates of movement, control fires when dually designated as an FSCM, and defines an AO?	Phase line
What are the two types of FSCMs?	Permissive and restrictives
Restrictive FSCM	Restrictive FSCMs provide safeguards to friendly forces. Five FSCMs are considered restrictive
Fire Support Coordination Measures	Enhance the expeditious attack of targets and provide safeguards for friendly fire. 2 types: Permissive and Restrictive
Name the four types of control measures discussed in this chapter?	Fire Support Station, Fire Support Area, Boundaries, and Phase line
