Woahhhh, slow down.

An ADC calculates raw air speed, TAT in addition helps with MACH/off topic but bottom line this is what is required for airspeed calculation.

The bottom line is that an ADC or DADC does not work out wind components as in reference to calculating navigational position/progress (can not think of why other you would ask this question)
