Back 8

TIM (toxic industrial materials)

______ warfare counters an adversary's strengths by focusing on its actual or perceived weaknesses.

Back 9

Asymmetric.

Front 10

What kind o forces are required to defend against NBC attack and sustain operations in an NBC enviornment?

Back 10

Knowledgeable and properly trained and equipped forces througout the theater of operations.

Front 11

What are the three major NBC passive defense program elements?

Back 11

1) Contamination avoidance 2) protection 3) contamination control

Front 12

What is the prupose of contamination avoidance in an NBC environment?

Back 12

Minimizing the impact of NBC contamination and hazards on operations.

Front 13

When NBCC contamination cannot be avoided, _____ provides forces with survival measures necessary for operation.

Back 13

Protection

Front 14

How is protection provided in an NBCC environment?

Back 14

through individual protection, collective protection and hardening.

Front 15

What measures comprise individual protection in an NBCC environment?

Back 15

Use of IPE, vaccinations and prophylaxis, protective shelters, evacuation, relocation, exposure control, contamination control, and warning and notification systems (and/or a combination).

Front 16

What determines which protection measures are taken in an NBCC environment?

Back 16

The ungency and nature of the threat.

Front 17

What directs the proper individual protective postures in an NBCC environment?

Back 17

Command and theater-specific instructions.

Front 18

What is the best immediate protective equipment against chemical agents - regardless of the type of the agent, concentration or method of attack?

Back 18

The ground crew ensemble (GCE)

Front 19

What are the components of the GCE?

Back 19

A protective mask with filters, overgarment, protective gloves and footwear covers or overboots. it also includes M8 and M9 detector paper and M291 and M295 decontamination kits.

Front 20

What is the prupose of collective protection and conventional hardening measures in an NBCC environment?

Back 20

To further enhance survival, limit attack damage and contamination, and support mission sustainment.

Front 21

How are hardening measures selected in an NBCC environment?

Back 21

Based upon the expected threat, unit mission and resources needing protection.

Front 22

What combines standard disease prevention, traditional NBC contamination avoidance and decontamination measures?

Back 22

Contamination control.

Front 23

Decontamination will reduce or eliminate most common air base contamination hazards, but will not reduce the need for personnel decontamination. T/F

Back 23

False. (Personnel decontamination requirements will be significantly reduced.)

Front 24

What are the three phases of attack?

Back 24

1) Pre-attack 2) trans-attack 3) post-attack.

Front 25

What is the focus of each of the three phases of attack?

Back 25

Pre-attack actions prepare the base for attack. Trans-attack actions focus on individual and weapons system survival. Post-attack actions save lives, detect and mitigate hazards, and restore and sustain the mission.

Front 26

What center is the installation's primary command and control nerve during an attack?

Back 26

The wing operations center. (it works in conjuction with the survival recovery center (SRC) and unit control centers (UCCs).)

Front 27

What does the WOC do during an attack?

Back 27

It implements operational plans and priorties, controls and monitors mission-generation capabilities, and ensures installation surivivability.

Front 28

What must personnel know to take protective actions in response to the base warning signals in all the phases of attack?

Back 28

The alarm colors codes, audible signals and/or supplemental information.

Front 29

At what levels, and during what attack force protection conditions (FPCONs), are contamination avoidance measures employed?

Back 29

At all levels and during all FPCONs.

Front 30

Commanders implement ________ - ________ mission-oriented protective postures (MOPPs).

Back 30

Threat_specific.

Front 31

Why are air base sectors and zones determined for passive defense?

Back 31

For rapid reconnaissance.

Front 32

When do trans-attack actions occur?

Back 32

Immediately before and during an enemy attack.

Front 33

Why do commanders declare alarm conditions during attacks?

Back 33

To initiate passive defense actions.

Front 34

Alerm condition green exists if you hear "alarm green" or see a green flag. what does it indicate?

Back 34

Attack is not probable.

Front 35

Alarm condition yellow exists if you hear "alarm yellow" or see a yellow flag. What does it indicate?

Back 35

Front 36

Alarm condition red exists if you hear "alarm red", hear a wavering tone on the siren or see a red flag. what does it indicate?

Back 36

Attack by air or missle is imminent or in progress.

Front 37

Alarm condition red exixts if you hear "ground attack", hear the call-to-arms on the bugle or see a red flag. What does it indicate?

Alarm condition black exixts if you hear "alarm black", hear a steady tone on the siren or see a black flag. What does it indiciate?

Back 38

Attack is over and NBC contamination and/or UXO hazards are suspected or present.

Front 39

What is the difference between alarm conditions and MOPP levels?

Back 39

Alarm conditions initiate or limit individual and air base-wide movement and action. MOPP levels let individuals know what to wear for minimum protection.
