Tactical Air Control Parties

Tactical Air Control Parties (TACP) are specialized military teams that coordinate and direct air support for ground forces. They communicate between soldiers on the ground and aircraft in the air, identifying targets and guiding aircraft to deliver precise attacks. Their role ensures close-air support is accurate and safe, helping ground troops accomplish their missions effectively. TACPs are skilled in marking targets, advising on weapon use, and managing air operations in complex environments, serving as the vital link that integrates air power into ground operations.
