NATO Integrated Air and Missile Defence System (NATINAMDS) AIR POLICING AS PART OF IT
AGENDA • NATINAMDS • NATO AIR POLICING • CASE STUDY
NATO Integrated Air and Missile DefenceSystem(NATINAMDS) • Itis the integration of capabilities and overlapping operations of all services to deter and defend all Alliance territory, populations and forces to ensure freedom of action by negating an adversary’s ability to achieve adverse effects from its air and missile capabilities. • It includes a network of interconnected systems to detect, track, classify, identify and monitor airborne objects, and – if necessary – to intercept them using surface-based or airborne weapons systems, as well as the procedures necessary to employ thesesystems.
NATO Integrated Air and Missile DefenceSystem(NATINAMDS) • Startedin the 1970s. • NATINAMDS is a cornerstone of NATO air and missile defencepolicy.

NATINAMDS Components • Active Air Defence:
Active Air Defence • NATO Air Policing: • Itis a peacetime mission which requires an Air Surveillance and Control System (ASACS), an Air Command and Control (Air C2) structure and Quick Reaction Alert (Interceptor) (QRA(I)) aircraft to be available on a 24/7 basis. • This enables the Alliance to detect, track and identify to the greatest extent possible all aerial objects approaching or operating within NATO airspace so that violations can be recognized, and the appropriate action taken.

CASE STUDY During the afternoon of 28 October, NATO radars detected and tracked seven Russian combat aircraft flying in international airspace over the Baltic Sea. The aircraft were detected at approximately3:30 p.m. (Local). CAOC decided to scramble the NATO Air PolicingQRA (I)aircraft from Ämari.
