Which is an output of the 'Engage' step?

• A. Mission orders verified by Target engagement option
• B. Target PID
• C. BDI
• D. JREAP

Answer: (A)

In the Engage phase, the action is to turn a validated targeting decision into actionable firing instructions. The key output is mission orders that have been verified against the target engagement option, ensuring the target, weapon, timing, and constraints align with the commander's intent and rules of engagement. This verification step ensures the engagement is authorized and properly constrained before any weapon is fired.

Targets identification (PID) is typically part of earlier targeting steps to confirm who or what the target is, not the final output of Engage. Battle damage indicators (BDI) come after an engagement to report effects, not to authorize the engagement itself. JREAP is a data-link protocol used to transmit information, not the outcome produced by the Engage step.
