Which statement best describes cueing WLRs?

• A. Using WLRs to cue only friendly units.
• B. Minimizing WLR radiation by turning off WLRs during battle.
• C. Using WLRs to cue only for enemy indirect fire.
• D. Activating or focusing WLRs so they radiate at the right time to detect enemy indirect fire while minimizing unnecessary radiation.

Answer: (D)

Cueing a Weapons Locating Radar means timing and directing its emissions so you’re radiating when there’s a real chance of detecting enemy indirect fire, while keeping overall radiation to a minimum. The best choice captures both parts: you activate or focus the WLR so it radiates at the right moments to detect incoming enemy indirect fire, and you do it in a way that avoids unnecessary radiation. Emitting all the time would waste energy and reveal your position, and cueing only for friendly units or only for enemy indirect fire misses the practical goal of timely, efficient detection across potential threats.
