  NATIONAL AND JOINT INTELLIGENCE SUPPORT
  7-10. National intelligence organizations employ specialized resources and dedicated personnel to maintain
  situational understanding about potential adversaries, events, and other worldwide intelligence requirements
  across the competition continuum. National intelligence organizations routinely provide support to JFCs
  while continuing to support national decision makers. However, the focus of these national intelligence
  organizations is not evenly split among intelligence customers and varies according to the situation and
  competing requirements. During large-scale combat operations against a peer threat, intense competition for
  intelligence resources at every level requires the efficient use and availability of Army information collection
  units and capabilities. (See ATP 2-19.1-1.)
  7-11. The Army must posture itself as part of the joint force to effectively support and achieve national
  objectives. The intelligence warfighting function is the Army’s contribution to national intelligence. As part
  of the joint intelligence effort, the Army’s intelligence warfighting function must assist in achieving those
  objectives. INSCOM, as a direct reporting unit to the DA G-2, conducts and synchronizes worldwide
  intelligence collection across all disciplines and all-source analysis activities.
  7-12. Table 7-1 lists and describes national and joint intelligence collection capabilities.
  Table 7-1. National and joint intelligence collection capabilities
  National and joint collection capabilities
  • CI: Counterespionage investigations, CI collection, technical services and support, strategic CI operations, and CI analysis and production.
  Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons: Intelligence information reports and investigative reporting on shared databases.
  • GEOINT: National and commercial overhead collection and theater airborne collection. Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons:
  Operational intelligence ground station, TGS, Global Broadcast System, Integrated Broadcast Service, shared imagery library, reports, and
  shared databases.
  • HUMINT: Source operations (recruited, nonrecruited, debriefing), interrogations, collection support activities (HUMINT screening, liaison,
  HUMINT targeting, HUMINT support to DOMEX). Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons: Reports and shared databases.
  • MASINT: Overhead warning intelligence. Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons: Operational intelligence ground station, TGS, Global
  Broadcast System, and Integrated Broadcast Service, reports, and shared databases.
  • OSINT: Regional analytic products across many areas. Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons: OSINT reports, tactical OSINT reports,
  shared-product library.
  • SIGINT: National collection, theater airborne collection, and theater ground collection. Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons:
  Operational intelligence ground station, TGS, Global Broadcast System, reports, and shared databases.
  • TECHINT: Strategic support to the development community and detailed information and data on threat equipment and systems.
  Disseminated/Broadcast to lower echelons: Report and shared databases.
  CI counterintelligence OSINT open-source intelligence
  DOMEX document and media exploitation SIGINT signals intelligence
  GEOINT geospatial intelligence TECHINT technical intelligence
  HUMINT human intelligence TGS tactical intelligence ground station
  MASINT measurement and signature intelligence
  U.S. ARMY INTELLIGENCE AND SECURITY COMMAND
  7-13. As the Army’s operational intelligence force provider, INSCOM provides forces to ASCCs and the
  combat support agencies: National Security Agency, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, and DIA.
  INSCOM provides a ground intelligence production center to support the Army and the DIA federated
  production program and conducts TECHINT and forensics to support acquisition and operations. INSCOM’s
  commander also provides Title 50, USC, National Intelligence Program support to the U.S. IC, combatant
  commands, and Army organizations.
  7-14. The Army, in response to validated requirements, may direct INSCOM to provide many different types
  of capabilities to multiple echelons and joint forces with intelligence capabilities resident within INSCOM.
  INSCOM also delivers linguist support as well as intelligence-related advanced skills training, acquisition
  support, logistics, communications, and other specialized capabilities to support Army, joint, and unified
  action partner forces and the U.S. IC. INSCOM’s MIB-Ts and functional commands may provide DS, GS,
  or GS-reinforcing to theaters through intelligence reach, or they may be force-tailored for deployment to
  support the joint force. (See ATP 2-19.1-2.)
