Targeting Defined

Targeting is the process of

selecting and prioritizing targetsand matching the appropriateresponse to them, consideringoperational requirements andcapabilities (FM 3-60, FM 3-90.6)

The emphasis of targeting is onidentifying resources (targets) the enemy can

least afford to lose or that provide him with thegreatest advantage, then further identifying thesubset of those targets which must be acquiredand attacked to achieve friendly success.

Targeting Process

D3A:The targeting process is based on fourfunctions: decide, detect, deliver, and assess(D3A). It is a Cyclic process. The D3Afunctions are not phased or sequenced, andfrequently occur simultaneously throughout

planning and execution.FM 3-90.6, The BCT, para 8-15

Decision Point (DP)The point in space and time where the

commander or staffanticipates making a decisionconcerning a specific friendly course of action. A decisionpoint is usually associated with a specific target area ofinterest, and is located in time and space to permit the

commander sufficient lead time to engage the adversaryin the target area of interest.

FM 1-02 Operational Terms and Graphics

DP

One result of the MDMP is linking the situation and eventtemplates with NAIs and target areas of interest (TAI) thatare linked to decision points (DP) for the commander. Thecommander approves selected IR as his CCIR for his DPs.These NAIs, TAIs, and DPs are expressed on the decisionsupport template (DST).

Review

1. When we are planning (MDMP) we are also Targeting (primarily

Decide products and processes).2. When we are targeting (D3A, F3EAD) we are using planningmethods (primarily COA development and analysis).

3. Commanders guidance for targeting is more implicit than explicit(macro to micro desired effects, translation of intent, broad COAplanning guidance).

4. At a minimum, we should apply the D3A methodology to thosetarget /problem sets to (a) ensure synchronization with currentassets, and to (b) coordinate for external assets.

5. We must ensure that what we target/engage will link to ourcampaign plan objectives and our tactical priorities IAW CDR intent.

6. We should see the enemy and understand as much about theenemy as possible, before we develop our HVT and HPTL.

HPTs when these targets can be successfullyacquired, vulnerable to attacks, and such anattack supports the commanders scheme of
