Joint Force <strong>Air</strong><br />

Component Comm<strong>and</strong>er<br />

The Service component comm<strong>and</strong>ers are responsible for<br />

making available to the JFACC those counterair<br />

forces/capabilities not required for their primary roles <strong>and</strong><br />

tasks per the apportionment guidance by the JFC.<br />

Functional component comm<strong>and</strong>s serve to ease the burden<br />

on the theater <strong>and</strong> joint task force staffs, free the JFC to<br />

focus more on strategic aspects of the campaign, <strong>and</strong><br />

provide individual air, l<strong>and</strong>, maritime, <strong>and</strong> special<br />

operations forces (SOF) headquarters for coordination with<br />

the other components.<br />

The JFC will typically designate responsibility for joint air<br />

operations to a JFACC. Although not a joint air operation,<br />

but a joint operation, counterair normally is an assigned<br />

responsibility of the JFACC. Some responsibilities of the<br />

JFACC relating to joint counterair operations include the<br />

following:<br />

• Develop, coordinate, <strong>and</strong> integrate joint counterair<br />

planning with operations of other components for JFC<br />

approval<br />

• Provide information operations strategies to neutralize<br />

enemy air <strong>and</strong> missile threats<br />

• Provide centralized direction for allocating <strong>and</strong> tasking<br />

joint counterair capabilities <strong>and</strong> forces made available by<br />

the JFC<br />

• Perform the duties of the AADC when directed by the<br />

JFC<br />

• Perform the duties of the ACA when directed by the<br />

JFC<br />
