The top-left shows the target name, type, grid location and elevation. Annotated target areas are designed to give useful insights into what to attack, but do not cover every enemy position.

Current Combat Box weather is shown at the top-right.

Scale and north orientation are shown along the lower part of the image, together with the altitude from which the photograph was taken.

For Apollo, recon is the Day 1 damage state — effectively untouched; actual damage will vary by day.
