Timely and accurate operational intelligence is critical to all Air Force combat operations. The key to timely receipt of accurate intelligence ir properly stated, validated, and prioritized requirements. Air Force operators and commanders need a better understanding of intelligence to enable them to play an active role in development of those requirements.
