WinOrLose Posted September 1, 2024 Posted September 1, 2024 Just wondering why Knock it off (safety of flight) instead of Terminate (learning objective over) is used? Really enjoying the campaign so far.
Smokin1469 Posted September 1, 2024 Posted September 1, 2024 At least for USAF, Knock it off wasn't just used for safety of flight. Both were used to stop a fight, for whatever reason. KIO was used to stop the fight for everybody. Terminate was used to stop a local engagement. For example, if you want to stop the entire 4 v X scenario, you'd say KIO. If you just wanted to stop your little part of the war, you'd say for example "Terminate the fight over Reveille peak, 10,000" You and the bandit would stop but the rest of the fight would continue. We briefed procedures to follow in the event of a local Terminate. A common one was for blue and red to flow toward their respective sides for one minute before pitching back into the fight. 2 1
