Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, control of the air has been a prerequisite to success for modern operations or campaigns because it prevents enemy air and missile threats from effectively interfering with operations of friendly air, land, maritime, space, and special operations forces, facilitating freedom of action and movement. Joint air operations are normally conducted using centralized control and decentralized execution to achieve effective control and foster initiative, responsiveness, and flexibility. When contemplating command and control (C2) options for joint air operations within the operational area, the joint force commander (JFC) can choose to exercise C2 through a functional component commander by designating a joint force air component commander (JFACC), one of the Service component commanders, or the joint force staff. Many factors will weigh on the JFC's selection-most notably the type and availability of forces and capabilities to accomplish the assigned mission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is time for Airmen to reenable the command and control (C2) of air operations as part of a joint force in today's complex security environment. Earlier this year, the Joint Staff released the latest version of Joint Publication (JP) 3-30, Command and Control for Joint Air Operations. Like all doctrine, JP 3-30's publication marks both an end and a beginning. The product is the culmination of a joint process by which Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines synthesized their experience and understanding of air and space C2 to provide future joint force commanders and staffs authoritative options. It codifies several important concepts, such as organizing with both theater and subtheater joint force air component commanders (JFACC), the role of air component coordination elements, considerations for the C2 of remotely piloted aircraft, and the potential for assigning JFACCs responsibilities for space-coordinating authority. However, the publication of JP 3-30 also signals the start of its revision. Transformation in the information age requires continuous improvement, and our dynamic Air Force strives to maintain the leading edge in the domains of air, space, and cyberspace. So, as today's version of JP 3-30 shapes how our joint forces command and control current air operations, we challenge our Airmen to renew the conversation onhow best to command and control air, space, and cyberspace forces for tomorrow's joint fight.
Download or read book Joint Airspace Control written by U.s. Joint Force Command and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-07-27 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This joint publication prescribes doctrine for joint airspace control in the operational area. The prescribed doctrine is broadly stated to fit a wide range of situations requiring military control of airspace. It outlines fundamental principles, relationships, and broad operational-level guidelines, and is intended to provide the basic framework upon which to build an airspace control system (ACS) for an operational area. The joint force commander (JFC) normally designates a joint force air component commander (JFACC) as commander for joint air operations. The JFC also normally designates an area air defense commander (AADC) and an airspace control authority (ACA). When the JFC designates a JFACC, the JFC also normally designates the JFACC as the AADC and ACA. The ACA plans, coordinates, and develops airspace control procedures and operates the ACS. The JFC may designate a separate ACA and/or AADC, in which case, close coordination is essential for unity of effort.

Download or read book General Kenney Reports A Personal History of the Pacific War written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1997 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: General Kenney Reports is a classic account of a combat commander in action. General George Churchill Kenney arrived in the South- west Pacific theater in August 1942 to find that his command, if not in a shambles, was in dire straits. The theater commander, General Douglas MacArthur, had no confidence in his air element. Kenney quickly changed this situation. He organized and energized the Fifth Air Force, bringing in operational commanders like Whitehead and Wurtsmith who knew how to run combat air forces. He fixed the logistical swamp, making supply and maintenance supportive of air operations, and encouraging mavericks such as Pappy Gunn to make new and innovative weapons and to explore new tactics in airpower application. The result was a disaster for the Japanese. Kenney's airmen used air power-particularly heavily armed B-25 Mitchell bombers used as commerce destroyers-to savage Japanese supply lines, destroying numerous ships and effectively isolating Japanese garrisons. The classic example of Kenney in action was the Battle of the Bismarck Sea, which marked the attainment of complete Allied air dominance and supremacy over Japanese naval forces operating around New Guinea. In short, Kenney was a brilliant, innovative airman, who drew on his own extensive flying experiences to inform his decision-making. General Kenney Reports is a book that has withstood the test of time, and which should be on the shelf of every airman.
Download or read book Command and Control of Joint Air Operations written by James A. Winnefeld and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the achievement of the principle of unity of effort from a narrow focus on the command and control of U.S. joint tactical air operations in four campaigns (Midway, the Solomons, Korea, and Vietnam) from 1942 to 1968 and extracts some lessons for future joint air operations. The authors distinguish between unity of effort and unity of command, a distinction that manifests itself in individual service doctrines, in joint operations, and, ultimately, in each of the Services' views of war. While unity of command is one of several steps necessary to achieve unity of effort, the authors recommend that debate should be centered around the accomplishment of unity of effort. The research was completed before the onset of combat operations in Kuwait and Iraq in early 1991. The authors hope to extend the analysis to cover that campaign in a subsequent publication.

This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication provides doctrine for the planning, execution, and assessment of airspace control during joint operations across the full range of military operations. It also discusses airspace control across the phases of military operations, emphasizing transitions from, and back to, civilian controlled airspace. This joint publication prescribes doctrine for joint airspace control in the operational area. The prescribed doctrine is broadly stated to fit a wide range of situations requiring military control of airspace. It outlines fundamental principles, relationships, and broad operational-level guidelines, and is intended to provide the basic framework upon which to build an airspace control system (ACS) for an operational area. The joint force commander (JFC) normally designates a joint force air component commander (JFACC) as commander for joint air operations. The JFC also normally designates an area air defense commander (AADC) and an airspace control authority (ACA). When the JFC designates a JFACC, the JFC also normally designates the JFACC as the AADC and ACA. The ACA plans, coordinates, and develops airspace control procedures and operates the ACS. The JFC may designate a separate ACA and/or AADC, in which case, close coordination is essential for unity of effort. The ACA develops a specific airspace control plan (ACP) that is approved by the JFC. The ACP should be closely integrated with the JFC-approved area air defense plan (AADP) developed by the AADC. Joint airspace control increases combat effectiveness by promoting the safe, efficient, and flexible use of airspace with minimum restraint upon airspace users, and includes coordinating, integrating, and regulating airspace to increase operational effectiveness. Effective airspace control reduces the risk of fratricide, enhances air defense, and permits flexibility. Airspace control operations may begin prior to (and continue after) combat operations and may transition through degrees of civil and military authority. The JFC defines the relationship between the ACA and component commanders. Airspace control is essential to operational effectiveness in accomplishing JFC objectives across the range of military operations. Airspace is a crucial part of the operational environment used by all components. A high concentration of friendly surface, subsurface, and airlaunched weapon systems must share this airspace without unnecessarily hindering the application of combat power. The primary goal of airspace control is to enhance effectiveness of the joint force and increase the safety of joint air operations. This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS). It sets forth doctrine to govern the joint activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in joint operations and provides the doctrinal basis for interagency coordination and US military involvement in multinational operations. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes doctrine for joint operations and training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall mission. Doctrine and guidance established in this publication apply to the commanders of combatant commands, subunified commands, joint task forces, and subordinate components of these commands. These principles and guidance also may apply when significant forces of one Service are attached to forces of another Service or when significant forces of one Service support forces of another Service.

Book excerpt: Air Force Doctrine ANNEX 3-30 Command and Control 7 November 2014 Key Considerations of Command and Control. This section introduces basic C2-related definitions (e.g., command, control, command and control, commander) as well as some key precepts (e.g., unity of command, centralized control and decentralized execution, commander's intent; battle rhythm, trust). Operational and Administrative Branches of the Chain of Command. This section discusses the differences between the two branches of the chain of command. This is an important distinction. Command Authorities and Relationships. This section discusses how forces may be assigned or attached to joint and Service commands, how to tie organizations together through careful arrangements of command relationships, and how to transfer forces between organizations. Commanding Airpower. This section outlines the responsibilities of the COMAFFOR and related component command issues. Command and Control Mechanisms. This section provides an overview of the C2 mechanisms within an Air Force component: the air operations center (AOC) and the Air Force forces (AFFOR) staff, along with discussion of AOC liaisons and the joint air component coordination element. (Note that this is an overview; detailed discussion is found in appendices) Organizing Air Force Forces. This section starts with a discussion of the differences between regional and functional organizations. It then introduces the air expeditionary task force as the model for organizing Air Force forces afield. This section also contains critical discussion on integrating regional and functional Air Force forces through specially trained liaisons and supporting command arrangements. There is also discussion of nuclear support to regional commands, homeland organizational considerations, integration of the Air Reserve Components, and the responsibilities of a senior/host installation commander on a base with mixed forces. Presenting Air Force Forces. Once Air Force forces are organized, they should be presented to a JFC for employment. This section provides a primer on joint force organization and air component relationships within a joint force. This section contains critical discussion on presenting an Air Force component at various levels within a combatant command. Several appendices provide deeper discussion of material presented in the main body of the document: Appendix A contains the formal definitions of command authorities and relationships, along with amplifying discussion. Appendix B presents the detailed discussion of a notional AOC. Appendix C presents the detailed discussion of a notional AFFOR staff, with breakdown by directorates and key responsibilities. Appendix D provides an overview of the theater air control system. Appendix E discusses accessing the Air Reserve Components.

Book excerpt: This study provides the reader with a historical overview of the command and control of United States air assets during joint operations. It traces the evolution of the role of the Joint Force Air Component Commander to include mission, function, roles, and structure that are essential to the Joint Force Commander for planning, coordinating, and controlling his combat air power. It provides view of the issues arising from interservice command and control procedures. These issues are derived from joint air operations that include Army ground based air-defense systems, United States Air Forces aircraft, United States Marine Corps Aviation Task Force, and Naval Carrier Task Force aircraft. The study draws on current join publications on command and control of the Joint Force Commander's air assets. Each service's doctrine on the planning, coordination, allocation, and tasking of air assets in a theater of operations is reviewed. Other documents, letters, memos, and papers that relate to the study further classify the interservice issues of disagreement. Army Air Defense Commanders should be aware of the issues because they fight in a joint force and may be under the command and control of either a USAF, Naval, or Marine Corps Air Component Commander.
