What should a firer do after receiving a "Lost" sensing?

After receiving a "Lost" sensing, it is crucial for the firer to reassess the target. This is because a "Lost" indication suggests that the current target has become obscured or is otherwise not currently in a position to be effectively engaged. By reassessing, the firer can gather new intelligence about the target's status, such as its position or movement. This step ensures that the engagement actions are based on the latest and most accurate information, leading to more effective decision-making regarding whether to re-engage the original target or to consider alternative courses of action.

Engaging another target without reassessing may lead to hitting an unintended target or missing the original target, which may still be relevant. Preparing for the next order without understanding the current situation can result in wasted resources or missed opportunities. Confirming sighting again before reassessing may hinder a firer's situational awareness as they may overlook critical changes around the original target. Thus, reassessing the target aligns with the best practices of ensuring accurate, effective engagement in direct fire scenarios.
