102 Air Force Information Warfare Center is the Air Force center of excellence for IO. AFIWC produces IO analyses and data for combat operations and targeting (and acquisition programs as well). It also assesses IO vulnerabilities of units and conducts adversary IO operation and vulnerability assessments. National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) is the sole national center for integrated intelligence analysis on air and space systems, forces, and threats. It assesses current and projected foreign air and space capabilities and intentions, develops targeting and mission planning intelligence materials, and evaluates evolving technologies of potential adversaries. Such technical information is useful in determining how to create specific effects on specific targets and target systems. In addition to expertise on worldwide air assets, NASIC also has leading experts on long- range surface-to-surface missiles (such as medium-range and intercontinental ballistic missiles). Air Force Space Command Air Force Space Command has deep expertise in space operations. Such information can prove useful when analyzing and targeting enemy space capabilities. Targeteers at the joint space operations center (JSpOC) evaluate theater AODs and nominate specific space-related targets to meet a theater commander’s objectives. Their expertise is invaluable when analyzing and targeting enemy space capabilities. Air Mobility Command (AMC) AMC Intelligence maintains databases on airfields worldwide in the event AMC must utilize those bases. Such information may be useful when targeting enemy airfields. Air Force Materiel Command Air Armaments Center (AAC) is responsible for the development, acquisition, testing, deployment, and sustainment of all non-nuclear air-delivered weapons. The information they provide may be beneficial during weaponeering and conducting munitions effectiveness assessments.
