that throw a significant amount of  radiological  fallout into  the  atmosphere).  This  model  should  not  be  used for high-altitude bursts or deep-water bursts. This  model  assumes  a  100  percent  fission  yield through  the  complete  spectrum  of  nuclear  weapons, including thermonuclear weapons; this is a worst case estimate. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Output    consists    of    an    analysis    of    dosage    of radioactive     energy     plotted     on     an     appropriate geographic background. The speed and direction of the effective fallout wind are included on the display. ATP- 45  output,  such  as  the  cloud  radius  and  deposition boundary,  is  provided  on  a  second  screen.  Figure  7-8 shows  an  example  output  of  the  RADFO  model,  and figure 7-9 shows an example of ATP-45 outputs. FORWARD-LOOKING INFRARED (FLIR) LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Identify applications,  limitations,  and  assumptions  of the FLIR program. Interpret  FLIR  tables  for detection ranges for predefined  altitudes  and target types. The  FLIR  System  Prediction  program  determines the detection, categorization, and identification ranges of   airborne   FLIR   sensors   against   surface   targets. Ranges are given as a function of aircraft altitude and are    for    a    50    percent    probability    of    detection, categorization,  and  identification  of  the  target.  The atmospheric   data   consisting   of   height,   atmospheric pressure,  air  temperature,  and  dewpoint  temperature come  from  the  atmospheric  environmental  file  (AEF). Surface  wind  speed  and  visibility  are  input  from  the keyboard when the program is run. Figure 7-8.-Example output of the RADFO model. 7-18
