This document is an assessment of theater air mobility history, doctrine, and leadership. The document analyzes current theater air mobility organization and command and control (C2) for supporting Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW) and multiple Joint Task Force (JTF) scenarios. A problem lies in the fact that current Air Force and air mobility doctrine establishes C2 with the Joint Forces Air Component Commander (JFACC) instead of with the Director of Mobility Forces (DIRMOBFOR) who oversees theater air mobility operations. During Operation ALLIED FORCE, this lack of C2 at the air mobility level created a coordination nightmare for the DIRMOBFOR as every mission (not sortie) had to be coordinated for validation with numerous commands and organizations until tactical control (TACON) of air mobility assets was delegated by the JFACC. This document employed support from three areas.
