Total Ammunition Management Information System (TAMIS) Certification Practice Test

This item tests which weapon the AN/PAS-13 night qualification designation is tied to. The designation is used to identify the night qualification program for the M2 .50 caliber heavy machine gun, a weapon often mounted on vehicle mounts or fixed emplacements where proficient night engagement is critical. Training under this designation covers operating the heavy MG at night, including proper sighting, target engagement, and the use of night-vision or other low-light procedures that are specific to this heavy caliber system. The lighter rifles and other machine guns listed have different qualification pathways and aren’t paired with the AN/PAS-13 designation, which is why the M2 .50 caliber MG is the correct pairing.
