14. U.S. Northern CommandArea of Responsibility Integrated and Comprehensive Defense “Forward Regions” USNORTHCOM AOR “Forward Regions” “Homeland” Homeland defense requires seamless geographic and functional integration

15. U.S. Northern CommandArea of Responsibility • NORTHCOM’s Area of Responsibility (AOR) unique • Principally due to inclusion of U.S. homeland within the AOR and heightened interest of domestic authorities in enhancing security • Poses different political, operational, organizational, and communications challenges for a unified combatant commander • Challenges will create increasing pressure for development of new relationships involving increased interaction with numerous federal, state, local, and non-government entities • These relationships will transcend all aspects of NORTHCOM mission spectrum • POLITICAL • Heightened domestic U.S. interest within States • Interagency interaction • Operates when asked or when directed • OPERATIONAL • 54 States and Territories • Legal constraints (i.e. federal and state laws) • C2 of Total Force • SA/Info Sharing/Intel • ORGANIZATIONAL • Will need to organize along functional rather than traditional lines • Interagency under reorganization so support to LFA requirements may change • COMMUNICATIONS • No chain of communication est. with all players • With State TAGs • Disparate State methods

16. Missile Threat to Airliners • Man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS) are a significant threat – especially in some overseas locations • Several attacks in the past few years indicate terrorists intend to target commercial airlines; • Commercial airlines present inviting targets; and • Most commercial carriers have readily identifiable national markings, they are relatively slow moving, have no self-protection systems, and their destruction would have psychological as well as economic aftereffects • Protection of commercial airliners from MANPADS is primarily a Transportation Security Administration responsibility • DoD does have significant expertise and potentially useful technologies that could be applied to this challenge • Since last year, HSC and NSC have been leading an Interagency MANPADS Task Force to develop recommendations to the President on how to deal with the MANPADS threat
