  Intelligence During Multinational Operations
  This chapter begins by discussing multinational intelligence and multinational
  information sharing. It then discusses planning, communications, and processes for
  multinational forces operations. multinational forces Next, it discusses intelligence
  operations, complementary intelligence capabilities, and information sharing. Lastly,
  this chapter discusses information versus intelligence and includes considerations for
  commanders and staff.
  MULTINATIONAL INTELLIGENCE
  4-1. The multinational force synchronizes its intelligence efforts with UAPs to achieve unity of effort and to
  meet the commander’s intent. Intelligence unity of effort is critical to accomplish the mission. UAPs
  contribute to the intelligence effort. Multinational and interagency partners provide cultural awareness and
  unique perspectives that reinforce and complement Army intelligence capabilities. UAPs may have access to
  different capabilities, or they may have more of a capability than Army and joint forces have. Some partners
  may have unique policies, authorities, or access that provide intelligence opportunities that are not otherwise
  available to Army forces. Using appropriate procedures and established policy, multinational force
  intelligence leaders provide information and intelligence support to multinational forces. The intelligence
  staff section leverages the intelligence enterprise to answer the commander’s requirements.
  4-2. Intelligence leaders ensure that the intelligence warfighting function operates effectively and efficiently.
  These leaders are the commander’s primary advisors on employing ISR and information collection assets.
  Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance is an integrated operations and intelligence activity that
  synchronizes and integrates the planning and operation of sensors; assets; and processing, exploitation, and
  dissemination systems in direct support of current and future operations (JP 2-0). Multinational forces need
  to approach joint ISR as a unified effort. To drive joint ISR and information collection properly, intelligence
  leaders consider and leverage all capabilities provided by the multinational force. Additionally, intelligence
  analysts support their commanders with analysis and production of timely, relevant, accurate, and predictive
  assessments and products tailored to the commander’s needs. (Refer to ADP 2-0 for more information on
  intelligence and the intelligence warfighting function. Refer to JP 2-0 for more on integrating intelligence
  and exploitation in operations.)
  4-3. Intelligence leaders ensure that multinational forces use the intelligence capability of UAPs. Failure to
  employ UAPs or disseminate their products is the same as keeping intelligence capabilities in reserve and
  may communicate an insult to the partner, which may result in a change in the level of support from the
  partner. Intelligence leaders may need to employ products, personnel, and capabilities from UAPs
  innovatively. This may include adding to existing capacity for performing types of collection or analysis, or
  generating a new, complementary capability. For example, leaders may use an open-source research
  capability to conduct in-depth studies of aspects of operational variables or civil considerations of an
  operational environment.
  MULTINATIONAL INFORMATION SHARING
  4-4. Every multinational operation differs, as do the methods by which the force collects and disseminates
  intelligence. As classification and dissemination controls may present problems in releasing information, it
  is important for intelligence leaders to avoid over classifying information and to work with the foreign
  disclosure officer and foreign disclosure representatives. Together, they ensure leaders can share relevant
  information appropriately with partners in the multinational force. (See Executive Order 13526 and
  AR 380-10 for guidance on foreign disclosure.)
  4-5. Multinational operations require foreign disclosure coordination and security classification policy
  guidance to drive write for release at the lowest levels. Staffs at all levels must follow foreign disclosure
  guidelines and regulations when sharing information and intelligence with allies and multinational partners.
