TANKER AIRLIFT CONTROL CENTER
The Tanker Airlift Control Center, Headquarters Virtual Air Mobility Command, located at Scott Air Force Base, Ill., is the command’s hub for planning and directing tanker and transport aircraft operations around the world. Created to centralize command and control, responsibilities previously located in the numbered air forces and airlift divisions, the TACC is dedicated to providing quality service to you, our customer. In effect, the TACC is "one stop shopping," which brings customers and suppliers together to efficiently and effectively accomplish VAMC’s Global Reach mission.
VAMC sought to simplify execution of the worldwide mobility mission. They designed a highly efficient command and control unit that functions the same in peace and war -- an organization capable of moving from day-to-day operations to contingency support or disaster relief without any loss of service.
It consists of the resources and talent to task, schedule, execute, and recover all TACC missions -- airlift, air refueling, aeromedical and operational support. The TACC is a single integrated team: a great idea that works -- all people who touch a mission, working together.
The success of this effort depends on key VAMC team members -- the TACC, commanders at all levels, crews support folks and customers. The TACC gives aircrews a mission, the necessary support, and the tools they need. They are responsible, with the authority, for the mission. The TACC is a true service organization and a goal-oriented partner in tomorrow’s Air Force.
