Welcome to the 461st Air control Wing

The 461st Air Control Wing is responsible for the wing transition from worldwide E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System employment to leading a ground-based tactical command and control weapon system, combat airfield operations, and the only active-duty combat communications group. The wing mobilizes, trains and deploys combat mission-ready personnel and equipment to designated theaters of operation and conducts sustained operations, providing uninterrupted Command, Control, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance in support of the joint force commander. The unit mobilizes and deploys command and control systems and the Deployable Air Traffic Control and Landing System, enabling both expeditionary airfield operations supporting combatant commanders’ Agile Combat Employment scheme of maneuvers and peacetime airfield operations supporting humanitarian assistance/disaster relief missions.
