What are the three Patriot launcher categories you must memorize?

• A. Local, RL-1
• B. RL-1, RL-3
• C. Local, RL-1, RL-3
• D. Local, RL-2, RL-3

Answer: (C)

Patriot launcher categorization is about how the launcher is controlled and connected within the engagement system. The three categories you memorize—Local, RL-1, and RL-3—cover the standard inventory classifications used in training and field documentation. Local means the launcher is operated directly at the site with local control. RL-1 and RL-3 describe remote launcher configurations that tie the launcher into the control network in two common remote setups. This set is the official memorize-for-inventory group, which is why it’s the best answer. RL-2 isn’t part of this memorized set, so it isn’t included.
