to the bomb rack, attach the pull ring to an arming wire, which is attached to the bomb rack. When the marker is released from the bomb rack, the arming wire retains the pull ring and removes the foil strip covering the battery’s cavity. When submerged, the Mk 72 Mod 1 battery is activated by seawater. Current from the battery initiates a Mk 13 electric squib, which ignites the starter composition of the first pyrotechnic candle. The composition ignites the starter pellet, which, in turn, ignites the first candle. When the first candle is nearly burned out, its heat ignites the transfer time fuze which carries ignition to the second candle starter composition. This starter composition initiates the second pyrotechnic candle.                     . Q1. Q2. Q3. Q4. Q5. REVIEW NUMBER 3 What is the burn time of the Mk 25 Mods 2 and 3 marine location markers?

DECOYING DEVICES LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Identify the purpose and use of decoy devices. Decoy flares are dispensed from launching mechanisms on aircraft. They are fired during evasion tactics when threatened by enemy heat-seeking missiles. The Mk 46 Mods 1, 1A, and 1C decoy flares are loaded into and launched from either the AN/ALE-39 dispensing set or the AN/ALE-37A chaff dispenser. The decoy flare (fig. 4-12) consists of a cylindrical aluminum case about 5.8 inches long and 1.42 inches in diameter. The base end of the flare is flanged to a maximum diameter of 1.495 inches to fit the counterbore in the chamber of the dispenser. The end Figure 4-12.—Mk 46 Mod 1, MJU-8/B, A/B, MJU-22/B, SM 875/ALE and chaff package. 4-13
