Notes:
Dialogue: The assess function determines the effectiveness of the attack. If the commander’s attack guidance was not met, the detect and deliver functions continues to focus on the target. The information obtained in the assess function may also cause changes in the original decisions made during the decide function. The commander and staff assess the results of mission execution. If the commander’s guidance has not been met, the staff continues to use the D3A functions to focus on the targets. For some fire missions, such as Suppression of Enemy Air Defense (SEAD), the assess function is as simple as determining if the target activity was suppressed (e.g., the radar stopped radiating).
