ACC Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations

Current as of February 7, 2023

MISSION
Enable dominant combat airpower by assuring spectrum access across all domains.

BACKGROUND
ACC Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations are a joint effort of the A3 and A6 Directorate. All spectrum dependent equipment must have a valid certification prior to funding obligation and a valid frequency license prior to equipment operation. The branch will guide customers to ensure radio frequency spectrum guidelines are met. Spectrum Superiority must be factored into all operate, train, and equip (OT&E) efforts with adequate numbers of Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) operators and planners trained correctly and equipped to ensure the Air Force can meet the challenges of the future in a near-peer competition.
