Which is NOT one of the four elements of a Fire Support task?

Explanation:
A Fire Support task is built to convey what to do, why, how, and where to apply the fires. The four parts you fill out are the Task (what to do), the Purpose (why you’re doing it), the Method (how fires will be delivered), and the Target or engagement area (where the fires will hit). Impact, meaning the desired effect or result of the fires, is the outcome you want to achieve, not a separate element you list in the task statement. So Impact isn’t one of the four elements.
