🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between EPA (Electronic Plotting Aid) and ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) • Minimum performance requirements for basic electronic plotting on radar • Which features require automatic tracking and computer simulation, versus simple plotting calculations

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which of these options can be done just by calculating from manually-entered plots, without needing full automatic tracking or simulation? • Which functions are characteristic of more advanced ARPA systems rather than a basic EPA? • Think about what the word "automatic" implies in the context of radar plotting—does EPA do that part for you, or do you still do some work manually?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in your notes or textbook how EPA is defined compared to ARPA • Check which of the listed functions specifically require automatic target acquisition and tracking • Confirm which features are tied to trial maneuvers / what‑if simulations, and whether those are mentioned under EPA capabilities
