When identifying targets for fire support, which factor is NOT considered?

When identifying targets for fire support, several critical factors need to be evaluated to ensure effective engagement. Among these, the consideration of enemy troop morale is not typically a primary factor.

Fire support planning focuses on concrete, tactical elements that directly relate to operational effectiveness. This encompasses the target's location, which is vital for precision and efficiency; the type of target, which helps in determining the appropriate method and munitions for engagement; and the expected effects, which allows planners to anticipate the impact of the fire support on the target and overall mission objectives.

In contrast, while enemy troop morale can influence the overall dynamics of a conflict, it is not a tangible factor that can be assessed and quantified in the same way that target location, type, and expected effects can be. Therefore, it does not play a direct role in the identification process for fire support targets.
