During an AT-4 exercise, what should you do if multiple misfires occur?

In the event of multiple misfires during an AT-4 exercise, the most appropriate action is to call a cease-fire and have the Officer in Charge (OIC) contact Range Control. This response is critical for ensuring safety on the range. Calling a cease-fire immediately halts all firing, which helps prevent any potential accidents or injuries that could arise from continued use of malfunctioning ordnance.

The OIC contacting Range Control is essential because it allows for the proper handling of the misfire situation according to established protocols. Range Control can provide guidance on how to safely address the misfires, and they may need to send personnel to assist or evaluate the safety of the situation.

Maintaining safety is the foremost priority during any training exercise, especially when dealing with potentially hazardous equipment like the AT-4. Therefore, taking a cautious approach by ceasing operations and seeking expert guidance safeguards everyone involved in the training exercise.
