Disambiguation: Strategic Air Command (SAC) — US Air Force major command, NOT to be confused with Special Activities Center (CIA) or other SAC acronyms. Primary military nuclear deterrent organization.

Strategic Air Command (SAC) was a Cold War-era United States Air Force major command established on March 21, 1946, responsible for command and control of strategic nuclear forces including intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), strategic bombers, and reconnaissance aircraft. Under General Curtis LeMay (1948–1957), SAC became the primary U.S. nuclear deterrent. The command documented multiple UFO/UAP incidents at its nuclear weapons facilities and missile launch sites; SAC personnel tracked unidentified aerial phenomena on radar but were reportedly instructed to deny sightings and divert aircraft from contacts. SAC was disestablished in 1992 following the Cold War and reactivated in 2009 as the Air Force Global Strike Command.

O Strategic Air Command (SAC) foi um comando principal da Força Aérea dos EUA durante a Guerra Fria, estabelecido em 21 de março de 1946, responsável pelo comando e controle de forças nucleares estratégicas, incluindo mísseis balísticos intercontinentais (ICBMs), bombardeiros estratégicos e aeronaves de reconhecimento. Sob o comando do General Curtis LeMay (1948–1957), o SAC tornou-se o principal sistema de dissuasão nuclear dos EUA. O comando documentou múltiplos incidentes de OVNIs/PAN em suas instalações de armas nucleares e sítios de lançamento de mísseis; o pessoal do SAC rastreou fenômenos aéreos não identificados em radar, mas foi aparentemente instruído a negar avistamentos e desviar aeronaves de contatos. O SAC foi desativado em 1992 após o fim da Guerra Fria e reativado em 2009 como o Comando de Ataque Global da Força Aérea.
