JFCC for Integrated Missile Defence Tie

Introducing project “Military Insignia”, featuring top quality military heraldry designs. Here you will find designer apparel, accessories, custom postage and gifts decorated with emblem of the Joint Functional Component Command for Integrated Missile Defence (JFCC IMD). JFCC IMD is a component of United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM). JFCC IMD was established to optimise planning, execution and force management, as directed by HQ USSTRATCOM, of deterring attacks against the United States, its territories, possessions and bases. In addition, JFCC IMD would employ appropriate forces, should deterrence fail, and the associated mission of planning, integrating and coordinating global missile defence operations and support for missile defence. JFCC IMD originated in the Implemented Directive issued by the Commander, United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) in January 2005. The JFCCs were formed to further operationalize USSTRATCOM missions and allow the Headquarters, USSTRATCOM to focus on strategic-level integration and advocacy. JFCC IMD is responsible for planning and coordinating global operations and support for integrated missile defence. The JFCC IMD will conduct operational and tactical level planning and day-to-day employment of assigned and attached missile defence forces for USSTRATCOM integrated missile defence operations, to include integrated missile defence planning and operational support responsibilities with other combatant commands, the Missile Defence Agency and joint service components. HQ USSTRATCOM will retain the responsibility for advocacy of system-level missile defence capabilities, integration of missile defence into strategic level planning and military assessments of missile defence capabilities. Strategic Level Intelligence support will be provided by Defence Intelligence Agency’s Joint Intelligence Operations Centre.
