Notes:
Dialogue: The most dangerous malfunction is the hangfire. A hangfire is a rocket malfunction which occurs when the FCS detects that squib pulses have been generated and detected, but the rocket is still in the tube. When a hangfire occurs, the flashing red hangfire light is turned on, and the letter "H" is displayed on the status line.
When a hangfire occurs refer to the section titled “operations under unusual conditions” in the TM 9-1425-646-10-2.
