Which navigational chart is used for short-range navigation methods?

Tactical Pilot Charts (TPC) are designed specifically for short-range navigation and are primarily used by military pilots. These charts provide detailed information relevant to low-altitude operations, including visual navigation features, airspace boundaries, and navigational aids that are essential for pilots flying in a tactical environment. TPCs support navigation within a limited area, offering information that is critical for maneuverability and situational awareness.

In contrast, High Altitude Enroute Charts focus on high-altitude flight paths and are not suited for short-range navigation, as they detail routes for aircraft operating at higher flight levels. World Aeronautical Charts provide a broader overview suitable for general navigation but lack the detail required for effective short-range navigation. Terminal Area Charts, while useful for operations near airports, are intended for facilitating approach and departure phases rather than for tactical or short-range flying scenarios. Therefore, the specificity and detailed nature of Tactical Pilot Charts make them the most appropriate choice for short-range navigation methods.
