What does cueing mean in SOTACC?

• A. Providing pre-briefed information to direct shooters toward probable locations.
• B. Providing weather updates to adjust timing.
• C. Providing general navigation directives.
• D. Providing logistic support only.

Answer: (A)

Cueing in SOTACC is the process of providing pre-briefed, targeted information that directs shooters toward probable locations of targets or threats. This relies on intelligence, prior reconnaissance, and observed patterns to identify high-probability areas where contact is more likely. By delivering this focused information, the shooter can prioritize where to search, cue sensors, and time fires more effectively, speeding up decisions and reducing unnecessary exposure. It’s not about weather updates, general navigation directives, or logistic support, which serve different purposes.
