  * Issuing surface-to-air missile tactical orders which direct ADA fire unit readiness based on the
  Army headquarters or AAMDC, and AADC, RADC, or SADC guidance.
  * Monitoring ADA unit information such as status and engagement reports, to include C-RAM.
  6-23. Brigade-level control of sensors generally revolves around coordinated emission control procedures
  and alert states. The procedures and alert states provide subordinate units predictable maintenance
  opportunities, emission authorization to achieve the directed alert state, and the opportunity to train with
  sensors outside of a full radiation condition.
  SUSTAINMENT OPERATIONS
  6-24. As discussed in the unit composition section, the ADA brigade is resourced to provide all staff
  functions, including the special staff sections of the chaplain, judge advocate, and surgeon. However, the
  brigade is dependent upon appropriate elements of the theater for financial management support, force health
  protection, personnel and administrative services, and supplemental transportation; the expeditionary signal
  battalion for signal support; support maintenance company for maintenance support beyond organic means;
  and field feeding company for field feeding support.
  6-25. The ADA brigade headquarters generally oversees two sustainment related responsibilities. First, the
  brigade assesses all the sustainment requirements across subordinate units and direct specific sustainment
  responsibilities to subordinate headquarters based on METT-TC. It is quite possible that a subordinate
  battalion will be directed to assume sustainment responsibilities such as logistics support and force protection,
  for non-organic subordinate batteries. Second, the ADA brigade coordinates sustainment support for
  joint/multinational AMD forces within the brigade’s area of operations. The combination of these two
  responsibilities ensure that all sustainment functions are properly provided for subordinate AMD units. In
  cases where a particular sustainment function is inadequate for a subordinate unit, the brigade will seek the
  assistance of the AAMDC to secure the appropriate resources.
