Restructuring ISR, a Roadmap for the Future

Abstract

The current AF/A2 has stated that no specific domain can or should lay claim to a monopoly on the Air Forces ISR mission.1 However, throughout the entire Department of Defense (DoD) exist intelligence organizations that are expertly operating within their own domains. The Director of National Intelligence (DNI) himself has placed such a high value and importance on an integrated Intelligence Community that he has made it one of three areas essential to success within his National Intelligence Strategy vision statement.2 Other redundant high-level documents recently published share the main theme of consolidation and enhanced cooperation of intelligence organizations for the greater good of the nation and its national security. Recent reorganizations within the Air Force make this an opportune time to realign intelligence organizations to maximize their capabilities and encourage cross-domain coordination.
