2035 and U.S. Navy Intelligence: Community Manning for Success in the Indo-Pacific

Abstract

This thesis seeks to understand the best method for employing the Naval intelligence community in 2035 and beyond. Naval intelligence manning has remained largely unchanged since the end of the Cold War. As the United States adapts to a new geopolitical paradigm involving peer military forces and the rapid technological advances, the Naval intelligence community must adapt to ensure U.S. success in all phases of conflict. This thesis sets the stage for a future geopolitical scenario defined by multipolarity, confrontation with China, and the rise of artificial intelligence and remote technologies. This thesis examines the problem of strategic warning to enable deterrence, effective team building to optimize information flow, and the effectiveness of tactical intelligence in the modern and future naval battlefield. Ultimately, this thesis argues the Naval intelligence community should expand its support to tactical warfighting units to ensure sustained U.S. naval dominance.
