CCI, formally "Control Center I" but colloquially known as "Command Center Invictus", is a New Alexandrian military installation and defensive underground bunker complex located in the Region of Alduria at the Starfall Redoubt Military Base and many other military units and organizations.

CCI is being built into and around Mount Isfahan, a mountain located to the southeast of the Aldurian city of Juana Díaz. East of Mount Isfahan lies the Dasht-e Kavir Basin, a graben basin. Most of this basin is also part of CCI and shall be part of the Kavir-e Namak Missile Range & Research Reserves.

Construction of the facility began in 1707 AN, funded out of short-term infrastructure financing government bonds and from the Department of Defense's Defense Construction budget. Construction is set to finish in 1717 AN, at the cost of €32 billion. Additional infrastructure spending was allocated by the Department of Civil Works and Transportation and its National Defense Infrastructure Development Fund.

Facilities

At a cost of €32 billion, CCI will be one of the largest defense construction projects in Nouvelle Alexandrie's history. It will be a vast complex, including surface-level and underground levels. The plans and details of the construction remain secret by Departmental Order of the Department of Defense. The complex will have its own power plant, large underground hydroponic agricultural pods, heating and cooling systems, and water supply.

There is more water produced by the Mount Isfahan mountain springs than the base requires, and a large reservoir of 110 km3 (26 cu mi) of water ensures that even in event of fire, emergency, or extreme need, there is enough water to meet the facility's needs and assist nearby communities. An additional reservoir of 4.5 million gallons (17,000 m3) of water is used as a heat sink. There are also reservoirs for fuel, food, medicine, supplies, a large battery bank, and several redundant power generators.

The Federal Aerospace Defense Center shall have the capability to monitor the air space of all of Nouvelle Alexandrie for missiles, space systems, and foreign air or spacecraft through its worldwide early-warning system. It has the ability to provide immediate connectivity and cooperation to allied militaries from the Raspur Pact such as Constancia, Zeed, Natopia, and Hurmu.

Starfall Redoubt Military Base will have a large training facility that will be used by the Federal Forces of Nouvelle Alexandrie for crew training and as a backup command center if required.

Eagle-Eye Cosmodrome will be a Federal Air Force of Nouvelle Alexandrie base that will serve as a space launch base and a missile testing facility. Javelin Testing Range and Laboratory, a joint research and testing facility for Javelin Industries, Pontecorvo Firm, the National Research and Development Corporation, and ESB Thermodynamics. In addition to its military space launch mission, Eagle-Eye Cosmodrome also performs space launches for civil and commercial space entities.

The military complex will also include the central headquarters of the Federal Air Weather Service, and the Marco Zimmer Emergency Center, where federal, regional, and local emergency management agencies coordinate and maintain offices or headquarters. The complex's vast and powerful communication center is also used, developed, and partially maintained by the Department of Communications and by the Department of Research and Development.
