GENERAL: a. Photography of targets, launch point fixes (LPF), offset aim points (OAP), post strike areas (P-S-A), or other areas of cperational interest can be made available to operational units. crews, and planners. This mission support imagery is classified SECRET, produced by 544 TMS. and made available ona strict need to know basis. The acronym “STIM” was previously used to refer to this class of imagery. This program is managed by HQ SAC/INTM. b. Mission support imagery (Target Area, Damage Assessment. Strike (DA/S), Launch Point, Offset Aimpoint, P- S-A. Contingency) is used for evaluation of Parent Numbered Air Force (PNAF) catalog plots, OAP selection, radar prediction and validation, or as otherwise required and authorized for Single Integrated Operational! Plan (SIOP). Non-SIOP Operation (NSO), and contingency preparation. Questions concerning authorized use of such imagery will be directed to PNAF INT for subsequent forwarding, with PNAF comments, to HQ SAC/INTM. 2. TITLING: a. Each piece of mission support imagery will contain 544 TMS identification number and copy number (Target Area imagery frame/copy number, Intelligence Cutoff Date (ICOD). OAP identifier will be the same as PNAF OAP catalog identifier. Examples of EWO support imagery titling are: (1) Target Area imagery sample titling is: EXAMPLE ONLY Reference DGZ 2308 RA/VA/CA X.

(1) All markings, annotations and attached forms will be made on protective overlay or sleeve. (2) Unite should annotate imagery sieeves with Target, OAP and LPF symbols and aumber. If multiple targets or offsets are on one piece of material, additional numbering annotations will be used to avoid confusion. Annotations and numbers will correspond to those used on bomb and missile displays. (3) Target Area, LPF or OAP Imagery reproduced for use in combat mission folders or study folders may be annotated directly on the reproduced copy with any additional information (e.g, BRL, track). c.

All imagery not included in the CMF will be maintained in an imagery files folder, filed by sortie/target or TINDGZ sequence. In cases where more than one sortie is om the same piece of imagery, each sortie will be cross referenced. d. SAC Form 373- 873a, Record of CMF Data Change, will be used aya record of active pages in the folder. Changes, additiuns or deletions to folder contenta will be in accordance with established directives. e. Each file folder wilil be marked and controlled in accordance with DOD 5200.1R,/ AFR 205-1 and AFR 205-25. NOTE 1: When more than one target is contained in each file folder, that file folder becomes TOP SECRET. NOTE 2: When one set of Target Area Imagery has two or more targets annotated on the same piece of imagery, it becomes TOP SECRET. NOTE 4: Imagery filed in study fclders containing more than one target will have the study folder classified TOP SECRET. f. PNAFs are authorized to file EWO Support Imagery by either TINDGZ or WAC sheet sort. g. All units will use imagery to update radar predictions and select/validate OAPs (as appropriate). \)
