This answer is Correct. Question 4 6.25 / 6.25 pts Control of the air describes a level of influence in the air domain relative to that of an adversary, and is typically categorized as… Air Balance, Air Superiority, or Air Dominance Air Parity, Air Ascendency, or Air Dominance Air Balance, Air Ascendancy, or Air Supremacy Air Parity, Air Superiority, or Air Supremacy This answer is correct. Question 5 6.25 / 6.25 pts To be considered Close Air Support the air action must be in ___________ of friendly troops and requires _______________. the area of control, fixed wing aircraft small arms range, visual identification the frontal zone, COMAFFOR clearance close proximity, detailed integration This answer is correct. Question 6 6.25 / 6.25 pts With regard to space electronic warfare, what is described by the following? "… another form of electronic attack where a fake signal is produced by the attacker's device…feeding false or corrupt data into the ground receiver system." Jamming

Blinding Frequency hopping Spoofing This answer is Correct. IncorrectQuestion 7 0 / 6.25 pts Select the most urgent priority for Close Air Support (CAS). M1 Abrams main battle tanks spearheading an advance make contact with enemy mechanized infantry. Infantry holding in a prepared defensive position have reported enemy light armored vehicles in front of their position. An infantry company prepares to assault a compound held by three to five enemy insurgents. A Stryker (US lightly armored vehicle) scouting ahead of the main body makes contact with enemy tanks. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 2, Objective 2. Question 8 6.25 / 6.25 pts In Szymanski's "Techniques for Great Power Space War," the author proposes "needs," "will/resolve," "intent," and "means" as elements of what conceptual construct? A National Space Strategy A space center of gravity (COG) A space observe-orient-decide-act (OODA) loop Space principles of war This answer is Correct. IncorrectQuestion 9

0 / 6.25 pts In "Beyond the Horizon: Developing Future Airpower Strategy," Col Jeffery Smith proposed clarifications in the following three areas of airpower theory. Offsets, Recapitalization, and Virtual Battlespace Access, Speed, and Remote Piloting Access, Speed, and Strategic Strike Offsets, Specialization, and Virtual Battlespace This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 2, Objective 3. IncorrectQuestion 10 0 / 6.25 pts Which of the following best summarizes the ground centric view of Operation ALLIED FORCE? Cooperation between the Kosovo Liberation Army and NATO air forces became the template for operations in Afghanistan. Preparations for a ground intervention were underway before Serbia capitulated and were the primary cause of the concession. Airpower is an inherently strategic weapon and should be directed at the enemy’s command and control functions from the start. A relatively small ground force of approximately 10,000 troops backed by airpower could have easily secured Kosovo. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 2, Objective 3. IncorrectQuestion 11 0 / 6.25 pts Which of the following summarizes Col Jeffery Smith’s assessment of present day airpower theory in "Beyond the Horizon: Developing Future Airpower Strategy"? The conditions that the Air Force has been operating in for the past two decades are an anomaly and will have no bearing on future theory and strategy. Operation Desert Storm is a more instructive model.

The “Rise of the Fighter Generals” has led to the atrophy of strategic strike in the Air Force. This gap needs to be addressed in order for the United States to be able to succeed in the anti-access environment. The future of airpower will rely on a very limited number of strikes made with “near perfect” information. In order to realize this vision the Air Force needs to invest in more and better ISR platforms. The Air Force has remained wedded to a fighter centric theory of airpower and has been slow to realize the importance of remotely piloted aircraft and airlift in the realities of modern warfare. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 2, Objective 3. Question 12 6.25 / 6.25 pts In his space strategy considerations, Szymanski emphasizes the importance of "defense over offense" for the US. Why is this? Because we have so many assets to defend, and probably few viable adversary space targets to attack. Because the primacy of defense aligns best with the historical American way of war. Because our space defensive capabilities are very robust, and can buy us time to identify and characterize our adversaries' strategy. All of the answers are correct. This answer is Correct. Question 13 6.25 / 6.25 pts Air Force Doctrine Note 1-20, “USAF Role in Joint All-Domain Operations” defines Joint All-Domain Operations as: Comprised of air, land, maritime, cyberspace, and space domains, plus the EMS. Actions by the joint force ________________________________________________________________ in all domains that are integrated in planning and synchronized in execution, at speed and scale needed to gain advantage and accomplish the mission. that are deconflicted real-time, integrating the best aspects of all services at the right place and time. that result in rapidly translated decisions into action, leveraging capabilities to achieve information advantage in both competition and conflict.

that work in combination, resulting in effectiveness that is greater than simply the sum of the parts. This answer is correct. IncorrectQuestion 14 0 / 6.25 pts In the YouTube clip from the 2019 Air, Space & Cyber Conference, former CSAF General David Goldfein, in his explanation of Joint All-Domain Operations (JADO), he uses a fictional scenario to demonstrate how JADO might work in a future combat scenario. In the scenario, the adversary’s hostile operation begins after ________________________ a tsunami strikes the adversary’s coastline, damaging all of its oil refining capacity. a United State protest of the adversary’s harsh economic sanctions against a U.S. partner nation. an earthquake strikes the U.S. partner nation, where the adversary takes advantage of the U.S. partner nation’s request for international relief. a surprise attack on the U.S. partner nation’s capital, paralyzing the partner’s ability to respond. This answer is incorrect. Please review Lesson 2, Objective 7. Question 15 6.25 / 6.25 pts In the YouTube clip from the 2019 Air, Space & Cyber Conference, former CSAF General David Goldfein, in his explanation of Joint All-Domain Operations (JADO), says that while we already have weapons and platforms that work cross-domain, JADO will become a fully networked force, where operators are connected _______________________ via Link-16, allowing sensors to communicate quickly and effectively with shooters. via Link-32, allowing sensors to communicate quickly and effectively with shooters. by a mesh network that is highly resilient and self-healing. by point-to-point circuits, minimizing jamming and other forms of interference. This answer is correct.

Question 16 6.25 / 6.25 pts According to CSIS’s “Making the Most of the Air Force’s Investment in Joint All Domain Command and Control” by Morgan Dwyer, the leading Air Force technical solution to the problem of Joint All-Domain Command and Control is the _______________________ Theater Battle Management Control System. Theater Air Control System. Tactical Air Control System. Advanced Battle Management System. This answer is correct.
