Supporting Air and Space Expeditionary Forces: Expanded Operational Architecture for Combat Support Execution Planning and Control (2006) By Patrick Mills
 
Anticipating varied and fast-breaking regional crises in the future, the United States is reassessing how it prepares, maintains, and employs its military forces. Key to this effort is examining the combat support (CS) system, and particularly the command and control of CS forces (CSC2). This research looks at the current operational architecture for incorporating CSC2 and proposes an expanded version of an architecture for the future. Using interviews with personnel, lessons learned from recent operations, and analysis of current CSC2, this report’s authors make recommendations to help the Air Force’s CS community move to this new architecture. This book builds on previous RAND research and is part of a larger series dedicated to bettering the support of the Air and Space Expeditionary Force.
