  2. Estimate height of objects in the surrounding area to use as a reference point.
  3. Estimate UAS size compared to other UAS in the airspace.
  4. Calculate UAS speed to determine height/altitude.
A

Estimate height of objects in the surrounding area to use as a reference point. Check on this

Q

UAS may execute various autonomous actions while in flight with little to no input from the operator. One of these functions is the “RTH” or “return to home”. Which of the following are true? (Select all that apply).

  1. RTH varies from model to model, with fixed wing models often conducting a spiral decent.
  2. Recognizing RTH may help track the UAS back to its operator.
  3. The RTH function may be triggered for multiple reasons, including operator use, system low battery, or defeat technology.
A

All the above (slide 16)

17
Q

True or False: When responding to a UAS activity, a vital first step for emergency personnel is finding the UAS operator.

A

True, (instructor)

18
Q

In the first responder C-UAS tactic framework, the “Assess” action is best described as:

  1. Assessing the UAS activity to determine whether it is within flight regulations, outsdie of regulations, not actionable.
  2. Assessing the UAS activity to determine whether it is unsafe, suspicioius, or not actionable.
  3. Assessing the UAS activity to determine whether it is safe or unsafe.
  4. Assessing the UAS activity to determine whether it is criminal, terrorist, or not actionable.
A

Assessing the UAS activity to determine whether it is criminal, terrorist, or not actionalbe (slide 26 Assess Mod 4 C-UAS Tactics Overview)

19
Q

True or False: Legal authority to respond to UAS activity is best determined by examing FAA regulations.

A

True (just need to find source in PP)

20
Q

True or False: Counter UAS technology available to state and local emergency personnel includes both detection and defeat technologty. Theses technologies allow state and local authorities to track and defeat a UAS in flight.

A

Not sure.

21
Q

The following could be a terrorist use of UAS: (select all that apply).

  1. Surveillance
  2. Propaganda
  3. Improvided Explosive Device (IED) delivery.
  4. Communications

All, Surveillance, Propaganda, Improvised Explosive Device (IED) delivery, and communications.

22
Q

Counter UAS tactics which use kinetic means to defeat a UAS include: (select all that apply)

  1. Firing a laser or electromagentic pulse at a UAS
  2. Tracking UAS activity.
  3. Firing a weapon at a UAS.
  4. Using netting devices to “capture” a UAS.
A

Firing a laser or electromagnetic pulse at a UAS, firing a weapon at a UAS, and using netting devices to “capture” a UAS. (Note: Kinetic means actually touching the UAS). Slide 16

23
Q

Assess this scenario and select the appropriate response: A UAS carrying a “handwritten note/sign” is detected flying in the airspace above a crowded outdoor street farmers market. The UAS begins to descend onto the croweded street below. Considering only the information presented, which of the following best describes an appropriate response?

  1. Responders should employ defeat technology.
  2. Responders should immediately photography the UAS and “handwritten note/sign” for investigative purposes before the UAS is tampered with.
  3. Responders should move people away from the landing UAS.
  4. Responders should not alarm the public and attempt to move the UAS away from the crowd.
A

Responders should immediately photograph the UAS and “handwritten note/sign” for investigative purposes before the UAS is tampered with. (Check on this).

24
Q

Assess this scenario and select the appropriate reesponse: You observe a UAS flying rapidly in the airspace over a soccer field. The UAS activity is loud and has attracted teh attention of several walkers on the sidewalk. At the end of the soccer field, you notice two individuals; one appears to be operating the UAS, the other appears to be looking at the UAS with binoculars. There are serveral black bags a few feet away from them. Cnsidering only the information presented, you determine the following:

  1. The UAS activity appears to be breaking FAA regulations.
  2. The UAS activity appears unsafe and futher action may be needed.
  3. The UAS activity appears to be susupecisousand futher action may be needed.
  4. The UAS activity appears safe and no further action may be needed.
A

The UAS activity appears safe and no further action may be needed.

25
Q

With certain exemptions, the Federal Aviation Administratin (FAA) mandates that all UAS fly:

  1. Below 600 feet above ground level (AGL)
  2. Below 400 feet above ground level (AGL)
  3. Below the designated commercial airspace.
  4. Below 1400 feet above ground level (AGL).
A

Below 400 feet above ground level (AGL).

26
Q

True or False: The use of unmanned vehicles or “drones” is contemporary threat only observed in the past 1-3 years.

A

False (last 10 years). (Need to find verification on this).
