OFFENSIVE COUNTERAIR

• Attack Operations• Attacks on missile sites,

airfields, command and control, infrastructure

• Suppression of Enemy AirDefenses

• Fighter Escort• Fighter Sweep

DEFENSIVE COUNTEAIR

• Active Air & Missile Defense• Air Defense• Ballistic Missile Defense

• Passive Air & Missile Defense• Detection & Warning• CBRN Defenses• Camouflage, Concealment,

& Deception• Hardening• Reconstitution• Dispersion• Redundancy• Mobility

COUNTERAIR

IAMD

JP 3-01: Countering air and missile threats requires aholistic approach that includes:• OCA attack ops• Active AMD• Passive AMD• C2 and ISR

by JFACC and approved by the JFMCC

Airborne Weapons Layer Concept

• Fighter aircraft as launch platforms• Leverages evolving sensor and weapon technologies to develop

• Upper-tier weapon focused on exo-atmospheric intercepts – long range, fast (approx 3.5 km/s at burnout)

• Lower-tier weapon focused on endo-atmospheric intercepts –AMRAAM body, shorter range, slower (approx 1.75 km/s burnout)
