What happens to the validity of a Tactical Drop Zone assessment upon mission completion?

Once a mission is completed, the validity of a Tactical Drop Zone assessment becomes invalid. This occurs because the conditions under which the assessment was made may have changed after the mission's completion. Factors like weather, changes in terrain, or alterations in mission parameters can impact the safety and effectiveness of future operations in that Drop Zone.

Therefore, to ensure the highest levels of safety and operational integrity, a new assessment must be conducted for subsequent missions. This requirement is typically established in military protocols to maintain operational standards and ensure that all tactical assessments remain current and relevant.
