  Light Damage
  4-195. Military action has blown off a few reflective panels.
  Moderate Damage
  4-196. Military action has blown off less than 25 percent of the reflective panels and either damaged
  the dish support structure or the feed horn, or both.
  Severe Damage
  4-197. Military action has blown off between 25 and 60 percent of the reflective panels, changed the
  antenna point, and either slightly deformed the dish or damaged its structural components, or both.
  Destruction
  4-198. Military action has blown off more than 60 percent of the reflective panels, destroyed the feed
  horn, extensively deformed the dish, or knocked the dish off its base, or any combination of these.
  FUNCTIONAL DAMAGE
  4-199. Functional degradation to sites depends on damage to the dish or its associated control
  building(s), or both.
  SHIPS
  4-200. The types and locations of damage determine the ship's ability to continue offensive and
  defensive operations as well as its need to return to the shipyard for repairs.
  PHYSICAL DAMAGE
  4-201. The team must consider certain factors before determining the level of physical damage.
  Factors
  • Seaworthiness--Is the ship listing, capsized, or sunk?
  • Firepower--What are the degrees of damage to the ship's guns, launchers, and magazines?
  -- Surface-to-air guns.
  -- Surface-to-surface guns.
  -- Antisubmarine guns.
  • Flight deck.
  • Hangars.
  • Aircraft elevators.
  • Mobility--To what degree is the rudder (steering) damaged? How much does this degrade the
  ship's sustained speed capability?
  • Sensors--To what degree is the ship's search equipment damaged and capability reduced (air,
  surface, and subsurface)? This assessment considers radar, sonar, and fire-control means.
  • Command, Control, and Communications--What percentage, type, and level of damage was
  inflicted on the pilot house, the bridge, the combat information center, the communications
  center, antennas, computer systems, and data links? What is the reconstitution time for each?
  Levels
  No Damage--Military action has caused no apparent damage.
  Moderate Damage--Military action has caused physical deformation, holes in the ship or its
  equipment, reduced the ship's ability to move or maneuver, or any combination of these.
