…To be useful as a gauge of effectiveness, a measure, whether an MOP, MOE, or SI, must be meaningful, reliable, and either observable or capable of being reliably inferred. Meaningful means it must be tied, explicitly…

Chapter 4 Diagnostic Analytic Techniques This chapter discusses the diagnostic analytic techniques routinely used by intelligence analysts. It discusses in detail the common techniques of deception detection, key assumptions check, quality of information check, indicators, and…

…Use of emerging and other structured analytical techniques (continued) Technique Used for: Often used with: Offensive/ Defensive Stability DSCA Threat Emulation Red Team A dedicated team with specialized training seeking to forecast actions of the enemy…

…It describes approaches used to conduct intelligence analysis and describes how intelligence analysis assists commanders with understanding the complex environments in which Army forces conduct operations. This manual emphasizes the act of intelligence analysis as a…

…Nonlethal capability use can also influence adversary decision maker’s choice of actions, local public condemnation of adversary actions, and directly impact domestic and international support of the adversary. Nonlethal target engagement provides the JFC a…

…Such coordination should delineate specific duties to federated partners, establish timelines, and determine the methods of communication to be used. Additionally, whenever possible, COMAFFORs should coordinate federated partner participation in theater exercises. Without proper coordination, federated…

…Unlike deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning can be a new source of knowledge; however, to be used correctly, the analyst must be wary that their personal bias may skew the results. Inductive reasoning is dependent upon accurate…

…Various elements of the JFC’s staff use assessment results to adjust both current operations and future planning. c. During conflict, the US will use all instruments of its national power against the full spectrum of…

…Both qualitative and quantitative metrics should be used to avoid unsound or distorted results. Metrics can either be inductive (using sensors or personnel to directly observe the battlespace and build SA cumulatively) or deductive (using indirect…

The Art of Joint Command II-5 supports operational art with a general methodology using elements of operational design for understanding the situation and the problem. The methodology helps the JFC and staff to understand conceptually…

…For example, use of aircraft systems that carry ISR and weapons capability may enable accomplishment of steps 1-5 and assessment using a single platform. 6. Output of the find step: potential targets detected and nominated…
