1
Q

an order that
provides the details of the approved requests for
coordination measures such as airspace coordinating
measures (ACMs), air defense measures, and fire support
coordination measures (FSCMs). It is published either as
part of the air tasking order (ATO) or as a separate
document. The ACO defines and establishes airspace for
military operations as coordinated by the ACA
