How many levels are there in the FPCON system?

The FPCON (Force Protection Condition) system consists of five levels, which are designed to provide a graduated response to varying levels of threat to military installations and operations. These levels are: FPCON Normal, FPCON Alpha, FPCON Bravo, FPCON Charlie, and FPCON Delta.

Each level corresponds to the severity of the threat and prescribes specific security measures that must be implemented. FPCON Normal indicates general peace and no specific threat, while FPCON Delta is initiated in response to a specific and imminent threat. Understanding these levels is crucial for personnel to effectively respond to potential security challenges and to maintain the safety and security of military operations and facilities.
