| Routine missions included work with ground FACs from other services in support of convoy escort, counter-indirect fire, cordon and search, armed reconnaissance, precision strike, and on-call CAS missions. The FCS program, the highest priority program in the US Army, (18) also incorporates armed reconnaissance robots that will be controlled by a command vehicle and used in high threat reconnaissance tasks. During the 101st Division's armed reconnaissance, the assistant fire support coordinator (AFSCOORD) coordinated directly with the air boss to keep CAS orbiting in close proximity to the target area while outside of the hazard area for ATACMS. |
