to the problem. COA #2 had its merits based on financial cost to the unit. The requested assets were already in the Army inventory. One of the major pitfalls to this COA was that there was no guarantee that these assets would be available to the unit on a consistent basis.

The aircrafts are controlled through systems of coordinated information systems. Any loss or misinterpretation of the information from the ground results into tragic accidents, loss of lives and resources. Such cases have been evident in many parts of the country where the crafts get lost from the system and crashes on the ground. The riskiest…

of this project I am starting to gain more knowledge in implementing project based learning. Among the things I learned is that the project is implemented in the beginning of the unit and should dictate the flow of lesson and activities.
