Joint Analysis System

Not at all. During JTCB planning, SCL standoff distance is not used and the standoff distance is set to zero in this case--or we wouldn’t be overflying. Recall there are two types of multi-target planning within JTCB: overfly & standoff.

• The multi-target algorithm is used when:
  • The Flight, after planning against its primary target, has excess munitions (i.e. the primary target’s expected damage met the Required Damage Level using a subset of the Flight’s SCL).
    • The Flight’s SCL (SCL_ASSET_CONFIG) has the MULTI_TARGET_IND set to “True”
  • Standoff or overfly mission is determined by:
  • If any of the munitions within the SCL have the STANDOFF_IND set to “True”, then the Flight will be planned as a standoff mission.
    • Only if all of the munitions have the STANDOFF_IND set to “False” will the mission be planned as an overfly mission.
