Active component divisions now have a division artillery (DIVARTY), each corps and 8th Army has an associated field artillery brigade (FAB), and FA battalions are organic to brigade combat teams (BCT). FA Survey teams now belong to the target acquisition platoons of the DIVARTY, FAB, and all FA battalions. Another significant change since 1993 is the digitization of our weapons and radar systems. The M109-series, M777A2, and the M119-series cannons all have position and direction locating ability. These systems require survey control points (SCPs) to initialize and update data to ensure accuracy levels are maintained. See Technical Manuals (TMs) 9-2350-314-10, TM 9-1025-215-10, and TM 91015-252-10 for specific initialization and update requirements.
