What does integrating lethal and nonlethal actions at the operational level?

The SEJPME curriculum is designed to instill in these warfighters a primary commitment to joint, interagency, intergovernmental, and multinational attitudes and perspectives so that they confidently and competently assimilate more quickly, effectively contribute in joint assignments, and mentor junior enlisted leaders and other enlisted personnel they supervise.

joint fires element (JFE) and information operations

What is the purpose of combining the joint fires element and information operations?

Its primary purpose is to integrate and synchronize joint fires into joint operations by using available capabilities to create a specific lethal or nonlethal effects on a target. Fires: The use of weapons systems or other actions to create specific lethal or nonlethal effects on a target.

What is the purpose of dynamic targeting?

Dynamic targeting is normally employed in current operations planning because the nature and time frame associated with current operations (usually the current 24-hour period) typically requires more immediate responsiveness compared to deliberate targeting.

During what phase of the targeting process are tasking orders prepared?

Once the JFC has approved the JIPTL, either entirely or in part, tasking orders are prepared and released to the executing components and forces. The joint targeting process facilitates tasking orders by providing amplifying information necessary for detailed force-level planning of operations.

Which of the following statements best defines joint fire support?

“Joint fire support is defined as joint fires that assist air, land, maritime, and special operations forces to move, maneuver, and control territory, populations, airspace, and key waters.”
