The Joint Targeting Cycle II-7 (b) During planning, targeteers will evaluate the objectives and the adversary COGs as described in JIPOE for selection of target systems. The purpose is to characterize the function, criticality, and vulnerabilities of each potential target. It is essential to link targets back to targeting objectives and MOEs developed during the end state and commanders objectives phase of the joint targeting cycle to weigh resources toward the most relevant and valuable target systems. (4) Target System Analysis. TSA is the foundational process of system-level target development. TSA is equally applicable to systems and capabilities associated with both nation-state and non-state actors. The TSA process enables additional, more detailed stages of target development. Note: While crisis action planning may necessitate a truncated TSA process, targeteers will still be required to compile enough intelligence to support the Figure II-4.
