   Perform criticality, vulnerability, and threat assessment.
   Support development of CAL by phase.
   Provide AMD running estimates.
   Develop ROE/identification matrix.
   Conduct AMD IPB.
   Assess availability of AMD assets by conducting a defense laydown.
   Determine levels of risk and means to mitigate.
   Propose DAL to commander.
   Request additional AMD resources if levels of protection cannot be achieved.
   Allocate AMD assets.
   Establish command and support relationships for subordinate units.
   Develop supporting scheme of maneuver.
   Develop initial defense design.
   Nominate targets for attack operations in support of offensive counter air development.
   Support refinement and adjustment of CAL/DAL.
   Develop sensor and communication plans.
   Plan deception techniques.
   Develop AMD plans/AMD appendices to OPLANs.
   Plan engagement zones with joint and Army commanders.

   Implement identification and engagement authorizations, weapons control statuses, air
  defense warnings, and ROE.
   Coordinate with supported commander.
   Position sensors and shooters and implement appropriate deception measures.
   Coordinate with joint and multinational AMD forces.
   Refine defense design and adjust positions as required.
   Establish sensor communications and early warning network.
   Conduct ROC drills with supported force.
   Implement airspace control order and special instructions.
   Conduct surveillance of airspace.
   Implement alert states or readiness conditions.

  ENGAGEMENT OPERATIONS
  2-25. ADA systems generally do not fight as independent AMD fire units. They are employed in integrated
  defenses with other ADA systems, such as Patriot and Avenger, or with the AMD systems of other services
  or multinational partners (for example, THAAD and the Navy’s Aegis). While SHORAD systems can fight
  as independent fire units, their capabilities are greatly improved by fighting as integrated formations with
  Patriot and THAAD forces or joint and multinational partners.
  2-26. Defenses are designed to provide the greatest degree of protection of designated assets against probable
  air and missile threats. Ideally, defenses have the requisite capabilities to overmatch threat capabilities and
  deny an enemy’s expectation of successful air and missile operations. Integrated defenses are developed for
