The '''Distributed Training Operations Center''' ('''DTOC''') also known as Detachment 1, [[132nd Wing]] (132 WG), [[Iowa Air National Guard]], is the "support nexus" of the [[Air National Guard]]'s Distributed Mission Operations (DMO). It is the only U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) unit providing daily tactical distributed mission training (DMT) events for Active, Guard, Reserve, and joint operations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.132dwing.ang.af.mil/Units/|title = Units}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.132dwing.ang.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/1285828/132d-wing-fact-sheet/|title = 132d Wing Fact Sheet}}</ref>

The National Guard and Reserve Equipment (NG&RE) Report for Fiscal Year 2008, reported that the, "...[[Air National Guard|ANG]] established the first Distributed Warfare Detachment in the Air Force at the [then-][[132nd Fighter Wing]] (132 FW) to house the Distributed Training Operations Center (DTOC). The DTOC’s one-of-a-kind capabilities and mission will grow to keep pace with the scope of Distributed Mission Operations (DMO) in the Air Force over the next four years. As the Guard’s DMO lynchpin, the DTOC will provide the operational environment for a virtual battlespace linking a wide array of high fidelity flight and mission crew simulators. The DTOC is responsible for all network management, event control, scenario development, unit DMO scheduling, remote maintenance, remote instruction, and realistic threat insertion. In addition, the DTOC manages the distributed network called ARCNET. The Mission Training Engineering Center (MTEC), collocated with the [[Air Force Research Laboratory]] ([[Air Force Research Laboratory|AFRL]]) in Mesa, Arizona, coordinates technology programs with AFRL, and acts as the engineering focal point for the Air Reserve Component (ARC, i.e., the combination of the ANG and AFRC) to exploit and transition leading edge technology into hardware or software solutions."

Previously known as ReserveNet when it was limited to AFRC, ReserveNet was renamed the Air Reserve Component Network (ARCNET) in 2009 when ANG units were incorporated into the network and the DTOC assumed its management.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.afrc.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/157976/reservenet-changes-to-arcnet-welcomes-air-national-guard/|title=ReserveNet changes to ARCNet, welcomes Air National Guard|date=14 September 2009 }}</ref>
