An Army liaison provided by the Army component or force commander to the air operations center (AOC) and/or to the component designated by the joint force commander to plan, coordinate, and deconflict air operations. The battlefield coordination detachment processes Army requests for air support, monitors and interprets the land battle situation for the AOC, and provides the necessary interface for exchange of current intelligence and operational data. Also called BCD. See also Air Force air and space operations center; liaison.

If the targets were in the corps AO, the ASOC either executed the prosecution or passed them to the combined air operations center (CAOC) through both the CAS cell and the battlefield coordination detachment (BCD) if the target was beyond the fire support coordination line (FSCL); that didn't happen often because the ACE was focused inside the FSCL.
