What is the recommended distance for a DAP?

The recommended distance for a Direct Artillery Fire (DAP) is 1500 meters. This distance is critical for ensuring effective coordination between the artillery and the observation units on the ground while maintaining an optimal safety range. At 1500 meters, artillery units can effectively engage their targets while minimizing the risk of fratricide and collateral damage to friendly forces or civilian structures. Additionally, this distance allows for better observation and adjustment of fire, ensuring a higher likelihood of accuracy when engaging targets.

Understanding this distance is essential for cannon crewmembers, as it influences tactical planning and the overall safety of operations. It reflects the balance needed between firepower and the need to protect personnel and assets in complex battlefield environments.
