Alternate <strong>Tactical</strong> <strong>Air</strong> Command<br />

<strong>Center</strong> Procedures<br />

The SAAWC and/or TAOC may be required to assume the Alt<br />

TACC role in those situations where the Marine TACC/TADC<br />

is unable to perform all or part of its mission. Activation of the<br />

Alt TACC usually occurs as a result of one of the following<br />

conditions:<br />

TACC/TADC as an operational casualty. The TACC’s declaration<br />

as an operational casualty is the most severe situation<br />

in which the SAAWC and TAOC would be required to assume<br />

the Alt TACC role. The unexpected loss of functions<br />

may occur when the TACC/TADC sustains either significant<br />

equipment loss or damage or personnel casualties.<br />

TACC/TADC movement/echelon. When the TACC/TADC<br />

would not maintain an austere manual capability during its<br />

movement and subsequent build-up to full operational capability,<br />

the SAAWC and/or TAOC may function as the Alt<br />

TACC.<br />

ROLE<br />

The Alt TACC provides limited TACC/TADC operational functions<br />

for command continuity when the TACC/TADC becomes a<br />

casualty for a limited or specified period of time. This highlights<br />

two key limitations of the Alt TACC.
