Duties of an Intelligence Officer
Intelligence Officers support combat operations - performing and overseeing the analysis and merging of collected intelligence, and producing assessments to meet operational requirements. Responsibilities include exchanging and collecting intelligence with other services, agencies and governments, and analyzing data to advise planners of options to accomplish objectives.
Intelligence Officers evaluate mission accomplishments to determine remaining adversary capability and requirements for retargeting, and coordinate intelligence estimates and analytical activities. They coordinate input to intelligence operations plans and orders, and advise commanders on threat systems deployment, tactics and capabilities, and vulnerabilities. They also provide intelligence support and assist in the planning and execution of information warfare.
