What is information about the friendly situation?

• A. Friendly Forces Information Requirement (FFIR)
• B. Priority Information Requirement (PIR)
• C. Named Area of Interest (NAI)
• D. Indicator

Answer: (A)

Understanding what information you need about your own forces is captured by the Friendly Forces Information Requirement. FFIR defines the exact data you must have about friendly units—their locations, strengths, readiness, equipment, and current status—so the commander can make informed decisions and keep operations coordinated and safe. This is distinct from what you need to know about the enemy or environment, which is the realm of the Priority Information Requirement. A Named Area of Interest designates a geographic region to survey for information, not specifically about friendly forces. An Indicator refers to observable signs used in reconnaissance, not a direct report of friendly force status.
