Issue Date: April 2024
This competency was developed for combat arms personnel required to supervise and control all aspects of the operation of a direct fire ground based missile system designed to destroy hostile aircraft in a deployed operational environment but is applicable to any individual in this field of work.
While this work will be undertaken under the commander’s direction the individual must be able to act independently as required by the circumstances, use discretion and judgement, and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs.
All activities are carried out in accordance with relevant organisational policies and procedures.
This unit covers the competency required to supervise and control all aspects of the operation of a direct fire ground based missile system designed to destroy hostile aircraft.
The control of the ground based missile system requires target interrogation, analysis, engagement and decisionmaking based on tactical information, situational awareness and observed target activity.
This unit of competency is written for visual range ground based air defence weapon systems, which does not include small arms.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. In a Defence context, this means that there is no civilian need to hold this unit in order to meet licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements.
