Issue fire control orders
Fire Control Orders are used to rapidly direct and coordinate fires within an element. Orders follow the GRIT format to ensure clarity, speed, and shared understanding.
Group: Identify who is to fire. This may be a specific individual, fireteam, or the entire element.
Range: State the range to the target, either as an exact distance or a reference (e.g. “close”, “far”, landmark-based).
Indication: Clearly indicate the target using clock direction, bearings, tracers, terrain features, or reference points.
Type of Fire: Specify rate of fire (Fire control FM/G139).
