Nuclear Employment Planning. Volume 1. Main Report

Abstract

The objective of this report is to define user planning requirements for tactical nuclear weapons employment. It identifies the nuclear planning employment functions at corps and division echelons, the interfaces among these functions and the interfaces between these functions and other command and control (C2) functions. It is intended that it be used as the basic requirements document for the automation of the nuclear employment planning process as part of the Army Tactical Command and Control System (ATCCS). Mission Thread Diagrams found in Volume I (Main Report) supplement the Data Flow Diagrams in that they show the sequence of processes as they are performed in one phase of nuclear planning, Commander's guidance as it applies to nuclear employment planning is discussed separately in the Main Report and interwoven throughout the data flow diagrams, functional descriptions and the data dictionary. All of these elements make up this report and must be viewed together to get the overall picture of the Operational Nuclear Employment Planning Process. (jhd)
