Located at Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, Neb., U.S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) is one of 11 unified commands in the Department of War.

USSTRATCOM deters strategic attack through a safe, secure, effective, and credible global combat capability and, when directed, is ready to prevail in conflict.

Priorities:

- Above all else, we will provide Strategic Deterrence

- If deterrence fails, we are prepared to deliver a Decisive Response

- We will do this with a resilient, equipped and trained Combat-Ready Force

Vision:

USSTRATCOM is a global warfighting command committed, as part of a global team of allies and partners, to maintaining strategic deterrence across the spectrum of competition and conflict. USSTRATCOM achieves its mission through a focus on people, readiness and capabilities.

Commander's Intent:

- People: Innovative talent is the foundation of our command, and we safeguard the well-being of our force.

- Readiness: USSTRATCOM forces remain safe, secure, effective, and credible, ready to execute the mission at a moment’s notice. Integrating across domains, with the Joint Force, and with Allies and partners using a common language serves as a force multiplier.

- Capabilities: Maximize USSTRATCOM’s ability to generate effects today and into the future. The Command’s capacity and capabilities are fully modernized and coordinated throughout the national levers of power, leveraging existing capacity and capability to maximize the effectiveness of our force and its ability to provide the National Command Authority with a safe, secure, effective, and credible strategic deterrent.
