Which of the following is a misfire recovery step?

• A. MISFIRE 3x, turn off CLU, disconnect CLU
• B. Turn on CLU, re-engage the target, nothing happens
• C. Check interface connections for dirt, debris, or damage
• D. Release both triggers then re-engage the target

Answer: (A)

Misfire recovery is about resetting the firing system to clear a fault and return it to a known safe state. The correct sequence starts by trying to clear the misfire with the MISFIRE 3x routine, then power down the Command Launch Unit (CLU) and physically disconnect it. This power cycle and disconnect reset both the launcher electronics and any safety interlocks, reducing the chance that a transient fault will carry over when you re-arm or reinitialize the system. The other options don’t align with this reset-and-clear approach: simply turning the CLU back on and attempting to re-engage, or running general interface checks, or releasing triggers to re-engage do not constitute the proper misfire recovery steps.
