Which EFST element indicates an area size of 2 km by 2 km?

Defining the EFST’s geographic footprint is what this item tests. The element that communicates a specific area size is the one that states explicit dimensions—2 km by 2 km—because it provides a concrete spatial bound for coordinating fires and ensuring everyone shares the same reference for where the EFST operates. Other elements describe what will be done (the task) or where the team will be positioned (primary, alternate, and supporting positions) or which areas are targeted (attack areas or points), but none of those specify a measurable geographic extent. So the 2 km by 2 km descriptor is the only one that communicates the actual area size.
