Which of the following is NOT an AMD Employment Tenet?

• A. Mutual Support
• B. Overlapping Fires and Coverage
• C. Weighted Coverage
• D. Redundant Sensing

Answer: (D)

AMD Employment Tenets define how units are arranged and work together to defend the area: mutual support, overlapping fires and coverage, and weighted coverage. Mutual support means adjacent units back each other up so a hole in one position is covered by another; overlapping fires and coverage ensures there are no gaps in the defended belt by having fires from multiple directions intersect the same area; weighted coverage directs resources and priority to the highest-threat or most important areas to make the best use of limited fires and sensors. Redundant Sensing, while it improves detection by using multiple sensors, describes a capability rather than a doctrine for employing and coordinating fires and coverage across AMD units. It’s about sensor architecture, not how the force is employed, so it isn’t one of the AMD Employment Tenets.
