Advanced Tactics Aircrew Course (ATAC) is a two-week course where events commence in St. Joseph, MO and conclude at Libby Army Airfield, Ft. Huachuca, AZ. The St. Joseph, MO phase starts out with graduate level academics in subjects like RADAR Missiles, ADA Threats, MANPADS with IR/UV Fundamentals, Combat Mission Planning, Communication and Integration, Advanced Mission Sets, Aircraft Combat Prep, LAIRCM, Air Threat, MISREP Reporting, and Combat Offload method B and C. Week one in MO also has two flying sorties. Sortie number one involves academics in CMDS/DS, IR Expendables, Missile Warning System, and Radar Warning Receivers. The flight involves practicing defensive maneuvers for MAF aircraft to survive throughout the entire ground threat arena. Sortie number two is a low-level navigation sortie, with an A-10 Close Air Support mission, two airdrops with simulated ACE concept employment at an airland location and LZ work. At the start of week two of ATAC, the entire class deploys to Libby AAF at Ft. Huachuca, AZ, where they will integrate with the AAMIC course to execute multiple integrated mission sorties. The AZ phase provides six sorties that are extremely accelerated, and the sorties include: Low-Level Navigation Training, Dissimilar Air Combat Training (Fly vs an F-16), Hostile Environment Training, and Formation Flight. Arizona is great exposure to high altitude, desert, and mountainous environments providing the most realistic combat training and qualifies as AMC Integrated Mission Sortie Levels 2 and 3. All sorties involve integration with Datalink, as well as simulated employment in areas of Contested Degraded Operations.

The AATTC also offers the Weapon Task Qualification Manager (WTQM)/ Munitions Training Course. Load Crew instruction is available and includes training in the uploading of expendables in the ALE-47 Chaff and Flare Systems. Academic instruction includes Systems Description, Explosive Safety, Expendables Operations, Maintenance on Explosive Loaded Aircraft, WTQM Duties and Responsibilities, and Practical Flare Loading Operations, utilizing training munitions items on mobility aircraft.

Advanced Airlift Mobility Intelligence Course  (AAMIC) is the AMC graduate level course that develops intelligence operators to support global Mobility Air Force (MAF) operations in the full spectrum of modern combat. AAMIC Students are taught lessons by Subject Matter Experts on topics such as: advanced analysis, aircraft defensive systems, contemporary and emerging threats, and advanced mission planning analysis and tasks. The AAMIC class then integrates with an aircrew class to provide intelligence products. This integration includes, but is not limited to: mission planning integration, briefing, debriefing, and report writing. Intelligence personnel will participate in the operations, tactics and intelligence interface. Students also have the unique experience to fly with the aircrew on tactical MAF sorties. This course is designed for intelligence personnel in grades E4 - E7 / O2 - O4 who have been in the field for approximately one year and having supported a MAF deployment. 

International Mobility Intelligence Course  (IMIC) is based on the success of AAMIC, but with our Allied Air Force’s intelligence experts in mind. Students are given advanced analytical, systems, and threat academics and are coached by AATTC staff in intelligence support to air mobility operations in a multi-national exercise.

Combat Aircrew Tactics Studies (CATS) / Mobility Electronic Combat Officer Course (MECOC) CATS-MECOC is AMC’s two-week intermediate-level combat employment and defensive systems course, designed to develop MAF tacticians with the qualifications to act as unit-level Chief of Tactics and fulfill the duties of Electronic Combat Officer (ECO) in accordance with AMCI 11-207. The course provides students the tools necessary to ensure the effective employment of mobility aircraft through integration in joint operations, as well as survival in electronic warfare environments.  Graduates will understand the optimal employment tactics necessary to achieve mission accomplishment, and possess the knowledge to lead deployed mission planning cells and home station tactics offices.

The Mobility Commanders Tactics Course (MCTC) is a two day course designed to instruct selected current/future squadron and group commanders and intelligence unit commanders in AMC’s current contingency employment planning policies.  It provides advanced topics in MAF Defensive Systems, Tactician Development, Tactical Arrivals and Departures, Countertactics Fundamentals, Intel’s role in supporting Mobility Operations, and exposure to other key resources available to squadron and group commanders.

Mobility Data Link Managers Course (MDMC) is AMC’s advanced-level management course designed to develop and prepare MAF tacticians with the qualifications to act as Wing or Unit level Tactical Data Link Managers (TDLM). This four day course fulfills the requirement laid out in AMCI 11-207. Students are taught TDLM roles and responsibilities and are presented with the inner workings of multiple line of sight and beyond line of sight radios and their supporting software. MDMC covers topics to include OPTASKLINK, COMSEC, TDL care and feeding, ground station setup, training, operational employment, and receive hands on training with multiple scenario generation tools during the hands-on lab portion of the class. MDMC develops the skills necessary to become unit level TDL subject matter experts with the ability to stand up a data link unit, perform a TDL deployment, and coordinate missions with other Link capable units demonstrating TDL interoperability.
