U.S. Army Navy Air Force Marine Corps TAC RADIOS - MULTI-SERVICE TACTICS, TECHNIQUES, AND PROCEDURES FOR TACTICAL RADIOS

PREFACE
1. Purpose
This publication provides a single-source, consolidated reference for tactics,
techniques, and procedures in the employment, configuration, and creation of
radio nets consisting of voice and data tactical radios.
Note: For the Army, the term “command and control” was replaced with “mission
command.” Mission command now encompasses the Army’s philosophy of
command (still known as mission command) as well as the exercise of authority
and direction to accomplish missions (formerly known as command and control).

2. Scope

(MTTP) for the tactical employment of tactical radios to support warfighters for

3. Applicability
This publication applies to the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast

and foreign national electromagnetic spectrum management requirements.
