In this step, initial assessment of action against the target is performed. 2. Input to the assess step is target engagement (step 5). 3. During the assess step, initial assessment of the physical or functional status of the target takes place. For attacks in the physical environment, the assessment confirms impact of the weapon on the target and makes an initial estimate of the damage. For nonlethal weapons, the initial assessment attempts to detect changes in functionality indicating a successful engagement. 4. For both lethal and nonlethal weapons, this initial assessment is part of battle damage assessment (BDA), phase I. Attack recommendations are generally not made using BDA phase I information. However, in cases of a confirmed miss, a reattack may be authorized based on target priority and weapon availability. 5. Further, assessment takes place in phase 6, targeting assessment.

The Joint Targeting Cycle h. Phase 6—Targeting Assessment (1) The targeting assessment phase is a continuous process that assesses the effectiveness of the activities that occurred during the first five phases of the joint targeting cycle. The targeting assessment process helps the commander and staff determine if the ends, ways, and means of joint targeting have resulted in progress toward accomplishing a task, creating an effect, or achieving an objective. Targeting assessment occurs at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels of war. The assessment of target engagement results must be integrated to provide the overall joint targeting assessment. Paragraph 4, “Time-Sensitive Target Considerations,” and Appendix D, “The Targeting Assessment Process,” discuss assessment in more detail. (2) The targeting assessment phase is common to both deliberate and dynamic targeting of the joint targeting process and examines the results of the target engagement. Effective assessments in phase 6 require detailed, continuous inputs from the first five phases of the joint targeting process to include: (a) Phase 1: End states, objectives, tasks, effects, MOEs, and MOPs. linkages. (b) Phase 2: TM, to include characteristics, critical elements, and functional (c) Phase 3: Target vulnerability, weaponeering solutions, and collateral damage estimates. (d) Phase 4: Tasking orders, weapon/delivery platform, and delivery tactics. (e) Phase 5: Intelligence collection supporting the commander’s critical information requirements, mission details, and mission reporting. (3) The outputs from phase 6 are: BDA, munitions effectiveness assessment (MEA), collateral damage assessment (CDA), and reattack recommendations. For additional information on targeting assessment, see Appendix D, “The Targeting Assessment Process.” Also refer to DIA publications DI-2820-4-03, Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) Quick Guide, and DI 2800-2-YR, Critical Elements of Selected Generic Installations (Critical Elements Handbook). 4. Time-Sensitive Target Considerations a. Objectives and Guidance for TSTs. The JFC’s objectives and guidance shape the basic procedural framework for components to expedite engagement of TSTs. Additionally, the JFC establishes guidance on procedures for coordination, deconfliction, and synchronization among components. Once this guidance is issued, the components establish planned and reactive procedures for engaging the prioritized TSTs. JFC guidance on TSTs to component commanders supports different phases of both deliberate and dynamic targeting and includes the following: II-31
