  E-29. The air operations center is responsible for overseeing the employment of airborne EA assets on the
  air tasking order. Airborne EA assets provide friendly forces with options to mitigate threats and give
  commanders options for targeting. Multiple configurations and capabilities exist for airborne EA to mitigate
  targets in land, sea, and air domains. See ATP 3-60.1 for a list of available airborne EA capabilities and
  configurations. The air operations center is the primary contact to determine in-flight capability for targeting.

  E-30. Dynamic targeting is targeting that prosecutes targets identified too late or not selected for action in
  time to be included in deliberate targeting. Dynamic targeting is normally employed in current operations
  planning because the nature and timeframe associated with current operations typically requires more
  immediate responsiveness than is achieved in deliberate targeting (JP 3-60). Dynamic targeting is used for
  targets of opportunity that includes unscheduled targets and unanticipated targets. When immediate airborne
  EA is required for deliberate targeting, for example, when a ground maneuver unit requires jamming enemy
  communications before engagement, a unit can request support using an EA request. Units also submit an
  EA request for EA support when a mission cannot pre-plan due to some operations’ immediate nature. The
  EA request prepares the aircrew providing EA support (see ATP 3-09.32). The JTF headquarters, the joint
  force land component command, the joint force air component command, and the air operations center must
  collaboratively plan airborne EA before an operation. This planning and coordination provides the joint force
  air component command the necessary time to identify and prepare an electronic combat squadron that will
  remain on standby throughout the mission. Figure E-5 on page E-13 depicts an EA request.
