Beaver control is a term for which facility?

• A. FACSFAC
• B. JHOC
• C. CHOP
• D. FEDCOM

Answer: (A)

Beaver control describes the facility that provides theater airspace control and coordination for operations. In Navy and joint operations, that control is handled by a Fleet Air Control Facility (FACSFAC). This unit manages radar surveillance, tracks aircraft, sequences and deconflicts air traffic, and coordinates with ships and other commands to keep air operations safe and efficient in the area of responsibility. The other facilities serve different roles (joint command operations, specialized posts, or federal communications coordination) and do not perform the theater air control function implied by Beaver control.
