also essential that other components provide inputs to the JFACC’s air apportionment<br />

recommendation to the JFC because it influences the strategy to task methodology used<br />

during the joint air tasking cycle. If a JFACC is not used, this process will be conducted for<br />

each Service component performing air operations.<br />

(2) Stage 2 is target development. The specific objectives received during stage 1<br />

are used to focus this effort. Targets are nominated to support the objectives and priorities<br />

provided by the JFC. In accordance with the JFC’s objectives and component targeting<br />

requirements, the JFACC (or Service component commander if a JFACC is not used)<br />

conducts daily joint air planning for the employment of available capabilities and/or forces.<br />

If the JFC designates an air component to merge other joint forces TNLs and develop the<br />

draft JIPTL, the end product of the target development stage is the draft JIPTL that supports<br />

the JFC’s prioritized objectives and conforms to guidance. In any case, the air component<br />

uses this process to develop the air component’s TNL for inclusion in the draft JIPTL.<br />
