-Minimum requirements of WARNO 1 - -1. Type of Operation
2. Location of the operation
3. Initial Timeline
4. Movement/ Recon to initiate
-What is the most important step of MDMP and why - -Mission Analysis; so
you understand the purpose of the operation
-Name the Operational Variables (Acronym). - -PMESII-PT
-What are the Mission Variables (Acronym)? - -METT-TC
-What is the acronym for Civil Considerations? - -ASCOPE (Areas, Structures,
Capabilities, Organizations, People, Events)
-What does PMESII-PT stand for? - -Political, Military, Economic, Social,
Information, Infrastructure, Physical Environment, Time
-What does METT-TC stand for? - -Mission, Enemy, Terrain and Weather,
Troops and Support Available, Time Available, Civil Considerations
-What does ASCOPE stand for? - -Areas, Structures, Capabilities,
Organizations, People, Events,
-What is the Area of Influence? - -Geographic are wherein a commander is
directly capable of influencing operations by manuever or fire support
normally under Commanders command or control.
-What is the Area of Interest (AOI)? - -Geographical area from which
information and intelligence are required to permit planning or conduct
command's operation
, Incldues: area of influence, areas adjacent to, and extend into enemy
territory.
-Avenues of approach are developed by? - -Group mobility corridors to form
avenues of approach
-Key Terrain - -locality or area the seizure, retention, or control of which
affords a marked advantage to either combatant
-Decisive Terrain - -Decisive terrain is KEY TERRAIN that has extraordinary
impact on the mission. Decisive terrain is relatively rare and will not be

the factors of METT-TC. The belt method works best when conducting
offensive and defensive operations on terrain divided into well-defined cross-
compartments,
during phased operations (such as gap crossings, air assaults, or airborne
operations), or when the enemy isdeployed in clearly defined belts or
echelons. Belts can be adjacent to or overlap each other.

COMMANDER will contribute to the success of the friendly COA.
-What is a high-value target? - -Assets that the threat commander
REQUIRES for the successful completion of a specific COA.
-What do threat models do? - -Depict how threat forces prefer to conduct
operatiosn under ideal conditions.
-What is a threat template? - -Illustrate the preferred deployment pattern
and disposition of the threat's normal tactics when not constrained by the
effects of the battlefield environmental.
-What is situation template? - -Depicts how the enemy might deploy and
operate within the constraints imposed by weather and terrain.
