Strategic Automated Command Control System-Data Transmission Subsystem (SACCS-DTS) Operation of Aircraft Wing Command Post/Modified User Terminal Element (AWCP/Mute), Base Communications Processor (BCP), Port Expansion Processor (PEP), and SACCS Desktop Terminal (SDT)

Abstract

This instruction implements Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 33-1, Command, Control, Communications and Computer (C4) Systems, and is used in conjunction with Air Force Instruction (AFI) 33-107 Vol. 1, Strategic Automated Command Control System-Data Transmission Subsystem (SACCS-DTS) Software Configuration Management and Change Control. The SACCS-DTS provides HQ ACC, HQ AMC, HQ USSTRATCOM, HQ AFSPC, and the Numbered Air Force commanders with operational information on strategic forces. It consists of two subsystems: data transmission and data processing. Both subsystems are electronically automated and interconnected to permit introduction of information at all levels to include the Missile Launch Control Centers and to present summarized data to headquarters command posts without intermediate human handling. Under computer program control, the DTS network links all SACCS-DTS terminal units, Automatic Digital Network (AUTODIN), and Defense Message Switching Transition Hub (DTH). It routes input information to the Command Control Processor Display Subsystem (CCPDS-R) and Data Processing Subsystem where it is summarized and prepared for presentation through the DTS to the command centers. The SACCS-DTS operates 24 hours per day and serves as the primary operational data and record communications system within HQ ACC, HQ USSTRATCOM, and HQ AMC.
