Forward air controllers’ training in 126th ASEWG Brigade
In the 126th ASEWG Brigade units, forward air controllers (FAC) are currently receiving their routine training in directing and guiding the fighter aviation as well as providing navigational aid to aircraft in case of emergency.
The activity is being undertaken in coordination with the fighter crews’ flight training, providing the optimum level of training to all elements making up the permanent combat-ready force, in real time and following real-life scenarios.The fighter aviation guidance is a specific process of controlling and guiding the fighter aircraft, which can be performed properly and successfully only by a well-trained FAC. Besides knowledge and experience, a FAC needs air surveillance information obtained from the 126th ASEWG Brigade units, as well as proper functioning and adjustment of radar, computer and telecommunication assets, in order to perform his or her tasks successfully.
Exceptional commitment and motivation of the 126th ASEWG Brigade members, as well as professional cooperation of the battle crews and interoperability of units are a guarantee of successful training which improves the ability of Air Force and Air Defence units to control and protect the airspace of the Republic of Serbia.
