This intelligence specialty involves collecting, analyzing, and producing intelligence information as well as the development and construction of target materials in support of combat mission planning and execution. Intelligence information collected by all sources must be evaluated to determine if it is accurate and then disseminated to appropriate levels of command. Automated Systems (Combat Intelligence System, Automated Message Handling Systems, Personal Computers) are the most often used methods to collect, analyze and store large amounts of intelligence information. Databases are created for enemy forces, equipment, location, and capabilities to aid all levels of command in target selection, mission planning, and combat mission execution.

Intelligence information must be delivered to commanders and aircrews through intelligence briefings (current intelligence briefing, threat-of-the-day briefing, situation and mission briefings) at all levels of operation. You will participate in this mission planning from the selection of a target, construction of mission route charts, choosing navigational aids such as radar offset aim-points, and providing imagery support materials to the assessment of bomb impact points. back to top
