MSOC personnel perform satellite command and control, communications resource management, systems engineering support, mission planning, user support and anomaly resolution for the Milstar system. The MSOC has three fixed constellation control stations, which interface with the geographically distributed MCCSs, executing satellite command and control. Two of the MSOC's fixed CCSs are located in the Satellite Operations Building at Schriever AFB. The third MSOC fixed CCS is located at Vandenberg AFB, Ca, which is manned with personnel from 148 SOPS of the California Air National Guard. The Milstar Support Facility personnel, also located in the Satellite Operations Building, perform ground control maintenance and testing, and hardware and software configuration control.Communications resource management includes satellite communications channel monitoring of payload use. Specifically, operations support personnel plan, execute, monitor and troubleshoot payload use allocations from the presidential level all the way down to tactical users in the field. These functions are unique at the squadron level, as other communications programs' channel apportionment is allocated by higher headquarters agencies.4 SOPS also provides operators for three mobile CCSs. At higher readiness levels and during exercises, these personnel deploy with the commanders of U.S. Northern Command and U.S. Strategic Command, providing survivable, enduring and secure communications and constellation command and control throughout the entire spectrum of conflict including trans- and post-attack phases of nuclear war.
