VS-08 will be conducted concurrent with Top Officials 4 (TOPOFF 4), the nation's premier exercise of terrorism preparedness sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security, and several other linked exercises as part of the National Level Exercise 1-08. These linked exercises will take place October 15-20 and are being conducted throughout the United States and in conjunction with several partner nations including Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, as well as the Territory of Guam. VS-08 and National Level Exercise 1-08 will provide local, state, tribal, interagency, Department of Defense, and non-governmental organizations and agencies involved in homeland security and homeland defense the opportunity to participate in a full range of exercise scenarios that will better prepare participants to prevent and respond to national crises. The participating organizations will conduct a multi-layered, civilian-led response to a national crisis. USNORTHCOM's primary exercise venues for VS-08 include locations in Oregon, Arizona and a cooperative venue with USPACOM in the Territory of Guam. NORAD's aerospace detection and defense events will take place across all the exercise venues, to exercise the ability to mobilize resources for aerospace defense, aerospace control, maritime warning, and coordination of air operations in a disaster area. [...] Exercise VIGILANT SHIELD Objectives: · Demonstrate multiagency, multijurisdictional unity of effort in support of a civilian-led response to a national crisis through collaboration with local, state, and federal responders to a series of catastrophic events. · Reinforce operational and strategic relationships between USNORTHCOM and the Department of Homeland Security. · Provide an opportunity for local, state, and federal leaders to conduct and lead response efforts within their state including the use of state assets, emergency management assistance agreements, and support from federal resources, including active duty military forces. · Assess NORAD and USNORTHCOM assigned units in the execution of homeland defense and defense support of civil authorities missions. · Evaluate NORAD and USNORTHCOM staff implementation of Concept Plans to include effects-based approach planning and operations to protect the homeland from missile attack. · Provide continuous Integrated Tactical Warning and Attack Assessment to all agencies, via NORAD. · Evaluate various combatant commands' operational coordination. · Develop U.S. government strategic communication themes and objectives to ensure that all exercise agencies communicate with one synchronized voice. · Exercise USNORTHCOM's Ballistic Missile Defense planning and operations to create a seamless coordination of control between combatant commands. · Provide USNORTHCOM opportunities to exercise defense support of civil authorities in the execution of Department of Defense Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, or High-yield Explosive response plans and coordinate AntiTerrorism/ Force Protection activities. · Deploy USNORTHCOM's Mobile Consolidated Command Center. · Conduct interagency and Department of Defense expanded maritime interception operations, maritime domain awareness, maritime warning and maritime operational threat response. ----- Let's hope that if anyone in NORAD or JFCOM plan to "go live" into a false flag with space-based or other assets that geopolitical forces opposed to further World War can stop them.
