  3-21. A corps as a tactical headquarters is normally resourced with an ASOC and can employ the JAGIC
  technique. However, even with a JAGIC, the corps should manage airspace as described in paragraph 2-28
  and delegate airspace control to the divisions within their respective AOs rather than trying to request corps
  assigned airspace. Controlling assigned airspace over the very large corps AO given the large numbers of
  non-corps airspace users operating over the corps AO would fully occupy the JAGIC and distract the JAGIC
  from enabling joint and Army fires supporting corps operations. Assigned airspace does not significantly
  enable corps fires and aerial surveillance. Corp fires are mostly long range fires requiring coordination for
  high altitude airspace above the CA, while, corps aerial surveillance platforms also will often be operating
  above the CA. The JAGIC’s airspace control effort should be to establish immediate airspace coordination
  links with appropriate joint airspace control elements in order to rapidly coordinate airspace for corps fires
  and for dynamic repositioning of corps aircraft.
  3-22. Using planning data from the fires and aviation planners Army airspace planners can integrate Army
  airspace requirements into the overall airspace control plan. Integrated planning ensures that the location
  and altitude of key ACMs, that define division assigned airspace such as the coordinating altitude, balance
  both JFACC and JFLCC requirements for airspace
  3-23. At the brigade level, the ADAM/BAE’s officer in charge leads the airspace control planning effort.
  The BAE represents Army aviation (manned and unmanned), ADAM personnel represent Army air defense
  and fires cell personnel represent fire support. Tactical air control party personnel represent the air component
  assets to include the unmanned aircraft system and defensive counterair. To increase flexibility and reduce
  risk, airspace element planners should do the following:
  * Consider the echelon commander’s priorities for airspace use.
  * Keep the plan for integrating airspace users simple and flexible.
  * Maximize the use of procedural means of control.
  * Limit (in number, size, and duration) ACMs to the minimum required for mission accomplishment
  to maximize flexibility for airspace users.
  * Structure ACMs to facilitate recognition by ground forces and aircrew members through
  alignment with major terrain features.
