It uses a sophisticated radar system made by Sierra Nevada Corp called TALS (Tactical Automated Landing System). The radar sits on the deck of the ship, and brings the Fire Scout in for the landing.

This theory requires that the ships group the functions and personnel to minimize the overlapping of responsibilities and duplication of personnel within the command. The ship manning document and the Standard Organization and Regulations of the US Navy [SORN] (OPNAVINST 3120.32B) provide guidance in the preparation of the standard ship's organization for all types of ships.

Divisions are the smallest organizational units aboard, and consist of groups of enlisted specialists organized according to skills.
