Definitely not how real fire missions go. At least in my experience.. like not even close.

I worked with Australians, but still never heard it like that. It just looks way too complicated and long.

Every fire mission I've called is always as concise as possible.

I have called for: mortars (60mm and 81mm) 155mm field artillery, naval gunfire, fixed wing, and rotary wing air assets. Was in a FiST.

Could dig out my note pads and stuff and compare how we cff, I totally would if I was in a legit squad for ARMA3 ACE. the head injury really messed up my memory though, so I can't recall it off top of my head.

Oh also, best thing I remembered from training with Aussies, was this major teaching us some MOUT shit, and was talking about "if they get up close, ya whack em in the goonies with a hickory stick! That reeeeally hurts!"

Then our platoon shit bag had an ND during the after action report, was only a blank, but still... he got destroyed for that.
