Current Joint Doctrine allows the Joint Force Commander a great deal of flexibility in establishing the theater missile defense command and control relationships. The guidance also suggests that the JFACC, if assigned, should control these forces through the AADC. While the Area Air Defense Commander must be the commander of choice for theater missile defense, the relationship with JFACC should be separate and equal.
