Brief description of squadron SoPs and expectations for roles within a package.

Air-to-ground

Ground attacks require a Fighter to Fighter brief, to cover the following topics (FROTIES): Formation: Flight formation. Default is trail. Roles: For each callsign whether they are shooter (employing ordnance) or cover (Guaranteeing mutual support with visual and comm) Ordnance: Weapons to use. Timing: Separation By x seconds or nautical miles Ingress Direction: Magnetic bearing to target from IP Egress Direction: Magnetic bearing from target to recovery Sort: Who is attacking what on the target. Default sort is north to south from #1-4 or by element (north half by 1st element, south half 2nd element).

Sounds like this: "Trail, shooter, cover, shooter, cover. AGM-65D. 15 second separation by callsign. Ingress from IP 1, right to 060, egress to IP 1, left to 270. Lead sorted BMP north of the road, 3 sort T-80 south of the road"

Fighter to fighter briefs should be done for each pre-planned target and for attacks mid-flight, following this best practice flow: 1. Flight lead capture/tally target and create mark point 2. Plan fighter brief, write down on scratch pad 3. Transmit mark point to flight and confirm flight capture/tally target 4. Perform fighter-to-fighter brief 5. Perform attack, re-issue new fighter brief as situation develops
