和COMTAC III版本的分别是，Comtac XP 所搭配的是更先进的"指向型" 麦克风, 而非我們常見的通用型麦克风. 其差異性在於指向型麥克風能夠特別針對人的聲頻進行收音, 並濾掉無用之背景音, 且其特性是能夠針對"定向音頻"進行收音.

TACP的部分参考资料：
A TACP is a Tactical Air Control Party. It is comprised of a JTAC (Joint Terminal Air Controller) and a ROMAD (essentially a JTAC in training, though the reality is ROMADs are frequently seasoned operators in their own right, having completed lengthy and arduous blocks of training and lacking only the final JTAC certification). JTACs direct the action of combat aircraft operating in CAS (Close Air Support) and other offensive operations, calling in airstrikes and gun runs like an FO or an ANGLICO Marine calls in artillery or naval gunfire. The NATO is Forward Air Controller. A typical TACP (JTAC or ROMAD or both) might be on an infantry patrol one day to coordinate immediate CAS and attached to an ODA the next day for the same reason.
The whole TACP/JTAC/ROMAD (and CCT) series of monikers often creates confusion, which isn’t surprising. A TACP is a Tactical Air Control Party. It is comprised of a JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) and supporting personnel, typically a ROMAD; though with the high demand for JTACs in the field with conventional units, many patrols are actually supported by ROMADs. They are usually a 2-man team and usually assigned to a conventional infantry patrol (usually platoon size or smaller) though they will frequently support SOF forces as well. TACP personnel are usually collocated with the unit they are supporting, so for instance you might find 2 Airmen bunked down at a COP with a particular platoon or perhaps company sized element, and those Airmen may only rarely encounter anyone else from their “own” unit during the deployment.
The difference? A JTAC is has completed JTACCQC. A ROMAD has not, although with the high operational tempo their squadrons experience, many ROMADs have a great deal of combat experience “on call”. Technically speaking, the primary difference between a JTAC and a ROMAD is that a JTAC is legally allowed to say CLEARED HOT on the radio and direct aircraft to drop their ordnance on target. ROMADs can and do talk the aircraft into position and frequently just hand control authority to a JTAC that may be miles away who (essentially relying on the ROMAD to do his job right) stays on the line long enough to clear the aircraft hot and then goes back to doing whatever he was doing (which is frequently talking CAS missions in wherever he is, if he’s not in the TOC).
The JTAC motto is ADVISE, ASSIST, CONTROL
The Tactical Air Control Party, commonly abbreviated TACP, is a small team of Air Force personnel who provide airspace deconfliction and terminal control of Close Air Support at battle group level or below. It usually consists of an Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC), and a ROMAD (Recon Observe Mark And Destroy). TACPs is part of Air Force Special Tactics and can serve with several types Army units in support of Ground Commanders intent; Armour, Infantry, Scout, Rangers or Special Forces. TACP's can usually be found on Army post at Air Support Operation Squadron's (ASOS). TACPs wear a black beret with a green and blue flash with interlocking red. A silver crest with a sword crossed by a lighting bolt with an omni directional compass
IIRC, a JTAC is a qualification, and a TAC-P is a person, and not all TAC-Ps are JTAC qualified.
What else does a CCT do that a TACP doesn't?
No and award of TACP AFSC has no must have JTAC qualification and certification requirement.
CCT is always a USSOCOM/AFSOC owned asset, TACP is an embedded with in an Army Brigade or Regiment support capability. The purpose is to coordinate for CAS assets and prioritizing the getting of CAS to who needs it most. Don't ned JTAC qualification and certification to do the coordinating on getting CAS overhead where it is needed. CTT has always been an on the DZ or LZ capability because the aircraft will be there.
Comparing CFETP for each AFSC would also clarify the mandatory required core skill differences if the significant differences in how long it takes to train a 3-skill level in each AFSC does not give sufficient clue there is a considerable difference.
There is a huge difference between the core responsibilities of each career field as Johca has said. Where we are similar is the controlling of CAS. For TACPs, CAS is the center of everything we do. Advise, assist and control. Regardless of what eschelon we're at, our business is Close Air Support. We provide CAS for conventional forces, Special Forces, Rangers and other SOF units as necessary. While coordination of CAS doesn't require a JTAC certification, JTAC is in our career progression, while that isn't necessarily true with CCT. When on team with Special Tactics, our job is still CAS.
Where CCT is similar is in the 1C aspect of our AFSC, we are both "Command and Control." With their experience in ATC, C2 and airspance control and deconfliction, it only made sense to add JTAC duties to their toolbox since there were no more airfield seizures going on. Their primary (and I believe only) customer is SOF so with that tool they can conduct CAS duties as certified JTACs. However, there were only so many of them, so they disbanded the SOF sections of TACP and have placed TACP in STS to assist with JTAC duties. Conservation of forces.
I often here TACP and CCT used in synonymous terms. Where TACP is the conventional version of CCT and that simply is not true. Outside of when we are both executing CAS, the two jobs are distinctly different
The inaccurate thinking or opinion TACP is the conventional version of CCT needs more emphasis. Discussing conventional vs special operations roles and missions pertinent to Air Force units and AFSCs is an extremely complicated many demarcation of functional chain of command vs. operational chain of command subject. The two AFSCs and employment concepts of operations and operations capability mission need filled is as stated has distinct differences.
The statement "JTAC is in our career progression, while that isn't necessarily true with CCT" is 100% correct and it has gained a lot more "progression" importance" or perhaps regained the progression importance within TACP that went into disrepair or neglect or lesser importance at the end of the Korean War and the Southwest Asia conflicts (Vietnam).
TACP has a lot of tools in its toolbox and turning nose-up at TACP in favor of opinion or belief CCT or PJ or SEAL or US Army Ranger or US Army Special Forces is the better job is unwarranted. I'm constantly amazed at the in-ignorance or out-of-ignorance want to do this military job because it???s special operations reasoning driven by feelings rather than an understanding what operational capability is and how this operational military capability is authorized to be used to do something.
This is something the infects TACP itself too. Its amazing how many young Airmen crosstrain (or attempt to) into CCT not because of a desire for their mission capabilities, but because they are AFSOC. *facepalm*
Thanks for the replies guys,
To be perfectly honest, I can't say that I'm not affected by the desire to be part of the Special Operations community. How many of us wouldn't? But I do understand what you guys are saying about letting that desire dictate your job choice, and even though I would love to be Special Ops I'm not going to look down at a position that is not part of SOCOM. I'm more interested in picking the job that would fit me the best--the job that I would be best at and like the most. If that happens to be CCT then great, but if it happens to be TACP then that's what I'll choose.
Now, I do have another question for you guys. If I were to become a TACP, where would I spend most of my time? Can one of you guys give me an example of what a routine day would be like for a TACP? Do they spend most of their time sitting in a base on the radio? Or do they participate in patrols/raids/missions?

Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) is a certification and a duty performed by the TACP member having such qualifications. Not all TACP get JTAC certified and some CCT also get JTAC certification.
Air Force TACPMain article: US Air Force Tactical Air Control Party
TACP Airman supporting live fire exerciseA USAF TACP, is usually a team of two or more United States Air Force TACP journeyman or craftsman(AFSC 1C4X1) aligned with a conventional or special operational United States Army combat maneuver unit to advise ground commanders on the best use of air power, establish and maintain command and control communications, and provide precision terminal attack guidance of U.S. and coalition fixed- and rotary-wing close air support aircraft, artillery, and naval gunfire. A TACP always includes at least one Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) qualified to control attack aircraft. It can also include an Air Liaison Officer, who is often JTAC qualified and serves in a senior advisor capacity
The training pipeline for a JTAC is as follows (it may vary slightly for a cross-over from another career field, though this is unlikely and will not be by much):
?TACP Initial Skills Course – 14 weeks, Hurlburt Field, Florida
?Combat Survival Course – 3 weeks, Fairchild AFB, Washington
?Basic Parachutist Course (depends on mission requirements, not all JTACs will atten) - 3 weeks, Fort Benning, Georgia
?Special Tactics Advanced Skills Course – 11-12 weeks, Hurlburt Field, Florida

AFSOC Tactical Air Control Party
Being a conventional TACP is already a challenging and arduous task, but, couple that intensity with the demanding and specialized operations of the U.S. Army Rangers, Special Forces, and U.S. Navy SEALs and you'd be describing the mission of an AFSOC TACP.
