Marine Air Control Squadron (MACS) provides which services?

• A. Ground logistics.
• B. Medical evacuation.
• C. Submarine surveillance.
• D. Air surveillance; detect/intercept; navigational assistance; airspace management; radar and non-radar ATC.

Answer: (D)

MACS provides air command and control services essential to Marine aviation. This includes air surveillance to monitor the airspace, detect and intercept threats when needed, provide navigational assistance to aircraft, manage the airspace in the operating area, and perform both radar and non-radar air traffic control. These functions are what allow MACS to coordinate and control air operations at forward locations and in support of the MAGTF. Ground logistics, medical evacuation, and submarine surveillance are handled by other units or forces, not by MACS. So the option describing air surveillance; detect/intercept; navigational assistance; airspace management; radar and non-radar ATC is the best fit.
