Which option correctly lists PL 2 resources?

Which option correctly lists PL 2 resources?

• A. Non alert NAOC, RC/WC/OC-135s w/ SCI, MPA, USStratcom Air Room, FAB-T, SACCS, 55 ISS
• B. RC/WC/OC-135s w/ SCI
• C. 55 ISS
• D. NAOC only

Answer: (A)

PL2 resources are the national-level planning and command-and-control assets kept ready for sensitive operations, requiring secure communications and coordinated use across multiple nodes. The full PL2 set includes non-alert NAOC, RC/WC/OC-135s with SCI, MPA, USSTRATCOM Air Room, FAB-T, SACCS, and 55 ISS. Together, these elements provide the critical combination of a central planning hub, secure airborne ISR platforms, planning and dissemination capabilities, and the networks and systems that carry, process, and protect the information. Other options are incomplete because they omit one or more of these essential components. For example, listing only RC/WC/OC-135s with SCI misses the NAOC, MPA, and the command-and-control and network infrastructure that sustain PL2 operations. Listing only a single item like the 55 ISS or NAOC fails to capture the full set of resources required.
