Air Operation Center (AOC)

An Air Operation Center (AOC) is a centralized command and control facility used by the military to coordinate and manage air operations. It functions like a sophisticated nerve center, integrating real-time information on aircraft, missions, weather, and threats to plan, execute, and monitor air missions efficiently. The AOC ensures all air activities are synchronized, allowing commanders to make informed decisions quickly, whether for defense, surveillance, or support roles. It combines advanced technology, communication systems, and skilled personnel to maintain situational awareness and operational effectiveness in complex aerial operations.
