The Post Attack Command and Control System (PACCS) was a network of communication sites (both ground and airborne) for use before, during and after a nuclear attack on the United States. PACCS was designed to ensure that National Command Authority would retain exclusive and complete control over US nuclear weapons. Among other components, it included Strategic Air Command assets such as the Looking Glass aircraft and mission, and various hardened command and control facilities.

dbo:abstract
  • Le Post-Attack Command and Control System (système de commandement et de contrôle post-attaque) (PACCS) était un réseau de sites de communication (terrestres et aériens) à utiliser avant, pendant et après une attaque nucléaire aux États-Unis. Le PACCS a été conçu pour garantir que l'autorité de commandement nationale conserve le contrôle exclusif et complet des armes nucléaires américaines. Parmi les autres composantes, il incluait des moyens du Strategic Air Command, tels que les appareils de la mission Looking Glass, et diverses installations de commandement et de contrôle renforcées. La conviction de l'Union soviétique sur la fiabilité du système PACCS était un élément crucial de la doctrine américaine de destruction mutuelle assurée, garantissant une impasse à long terme. (fr)
