Air Support Operations Center

An Air Support Operations Center (ASOC) is a facility that coordinates and directs air support for ground forces in military operations. It acts as a communication hub, linking ground commanders with aircraft to ensure precise and effective air strikes. The ASOC assesses battlefield situations, prioritizes targets, and provides real-time information to pilots. This coordination enhances the effectiveness of air power while minimizing collateral damage. Essentially, the ASOC ensures that the right aircraft deliver the right support at the right time to ground troops engaged in combat.
