FM 6-02.90 (ARMY FIELD MANUAL), MULTI-SERVICE TACTICS, TECHNIQUES, AND PROCEDURES FOR ULTRA HIGH FREQUENCY TACTICAL SATELLITE AND DEMAND ASSIGNED MULTIPLE ACCESS OPERATIONS (1 AUG 2004) [MCRP 3-40.3G, NTTP 6-02.9, AFTTP(I) 3-2.53)]., The intent of this publication is to assist planners and users at the joint task force,
Service component, and other functional components by providing an improved and
unified process for planning, managing, and using ultra high frequency (UHF) tactical
satellite (TACSAT) frequencies with special emphasis on maximizing the use of this
limited resource. identified significant problems with planning and utilizing the limited number of UHF
TACSAT frequencies. Current methods and procedures based on use, geography,
channel size, demand access, and time have proved difficult to integrate and require
extensive manual tracking and manipulation. These inefficiencies contribute to the
shortage of this critical command and control resource. This multi-Service tactics,
techniques, and procedures (MTTP) publication consolidates and standardizes Service
tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) for planning and executing UHF TACSAT
frequency management operations. It serves as a planning and execution guide and a
framework for coordination and synchronization consistent with current Joint doctrine.
