Forward Air Controllers
Forward Air Controllers (FAC) are highly trained specialists who provide a vital link between air and ground forces. Their primary role is to communicate with attack aircraft and call in attack runs on targets on the ground. An FAC, or Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC), as they are known is U.S. and NATO circles are trained to call in air support from jets, helicopter gunships and armed drones.

When air power is used to support friendly ground units in contact with the enemy it is known as close air support (CAS). The nature of CAS is such that blue-on-blue or so-called 'friendly fire' incidents are always a risk, as is causing civilian casualties. FACs help to lower those risks by carefully selecting targets to ensure that the right ones are hit. In fact, it was standard operating procedure in Afghanistan that no CAS missions were to be carried out without a FAC on the ground, authorising every step of an engagement.
