Title: Launcher Response Posturing (Weapon Information)
Dialogue: Based on mission requirements, ammunition availability, and crew status, the commander will direct how many launchers need to be available for fire missions during operations. The platoon leader will, in turn, direct the tactical posturing of his launchers to meet the commander's guidance. The platoon leader can posture his launchers in one of three ways: HOT, COOL, or COLD. The ballistic algorithm imbedded in the EU of the launcher FCS takes into account specific ammunition information (weight, ambient temp and ammunition type).
