Which CID type is described by having the target provide self-ID, IFF, AIS, EIFF?

• A. Procedural
• B. Non-Cooperative
• C. Cooperative
• D. Intel Fusion

Answer: (C)

When a target provides its own identity and uses standard identification signals, that indicates a cooperative CID type. IFF, AIS, and EIFF are transmissions that the target actively broadcasts to confirm who it is and often where it is, so the identification process relies on the target’s participation. This is exactly what “cooperative” means in this context: the subject being identified helps the identification system by self-identifying and signaling with recognized IDs. Procedural would imply the ID comes from following a set process, not necessarily the target actively broadcasting its identity. Non-cooperative describes a scenario where the target does not provide self-ID, requiring other methods to identify it. Intel Fusion is about combining data from multiple sources to form a single picture, not about the target’s willingness to identify itself.
