AADC's DCA planning as AMDCOORD and Army AD representative to the
JFACC. In addition, the TAAMDCOORD ensures that corps air and missile
defense requirements are integrated into joint counterair and TMD planning.
5-38. The TAAMDCOORD contributes the majority of the joint force surfaceto-air
missile forces as the commander of the highest echelon AD command in
the theater. He deploys resources in the combat and communications zones
and influences tactical operations by shifting the ADA force between these
two areas based on the concept of the operation (figure 5-2).

DEPUTY AREA AIR DEFENSE COMMANDER
5-39. Based on the factors of METT-TC (mission, enemy, terrain and weather,
troops, time available and civil considerations) the joint force commander
(JFC) and area air defense commander (AADC) will determine whether a
deputy area air defense commander (DAADC) should be designated.
Normally, the commander of the Army Air and Missile Defense Command
(AAMDC) assumes the role of the DAADC because the AAMDC has the
necessary personnel and equipment to support the DAADC mission. This
designation formalizes the relationship between the land-based AD assets
dedicated to theater level missions and the AADC and also ensures fully
integrated and synchronized counterair and TMD operations.
