Rapid Application of Air
Power (RAAP)
Rapid Application of Air
Power (RAAP) supports targeting functions at the AOC. Specifically, it
is used to develop, weaponeer, and nominate
situationally-relevant targets for attack by air force assets,
and provides a fully developed, weaponeered, and prioritized
Target Nomination List (TNL) for input into the Advanced Planning
System (APS), a module within CTAPS, as part of the process which
results in the daily Air/Integrated Tasking Order (ATO/ITO).
The Combat Intelligence Systems (CIS) Program is a combination of
four related systems: Intelligence Correlation Module (ICM),
Sentinel Byte, Constant Source, and Rapid Application of Air
Power (RAAP). ICM and RAAP are integrated into CTAPS. Sentinel
Byte and Constant Source are in turn integrated into ICM but are
also installed as standalone, unit level, intelligence support
systems.
