By 1995, the Emergency War Order communication systems "..consist[ed] of the primary alert system (PAS), SAC digital network (SACDIN), Survivable Low Frequency Communications System (SLFCS), Air Force Satellite Communications System (AFSATCOM), [ICBM] Super High Frequency Satellite Terminal (ISST) and [UHF] voice radio communication systems." By 2011,
35-541: The federal government published in 2016 noted that the SACCS was one of the oldest federal IT investments, running on 1970s-era IBM Series/1 software and 8-inch floppy disks .

Strategic Air Command was disestablished in the early 1990s. Despite the command's inactivation, the SAC Automated Command and Control System continued using that name for several years. The former SAC C system formed part of " USSTRATCOM Command and Control" ( PE 0101316F)(except for
