5.4    Ground Ops.

Confirm the weapons menus are set up correctly to include delivery parameters and break X altitude. Target coordinates and target elevation should be verified (or entered if required) on the ground. Set the altitude warning to radar altimeter (“RALT”), and choose a warning altitude that won’t distract from the mission but will provide timely SA and aid in ground collision avoidance (refer to the squadron standards). In the upfront control panel (UFCP) “HUD” menu, ensure that you select Drift (DRF) mode and not Drift-Cut-Out (DCO) mode.
