Structured thinking that results in a prediction of what is likely to happen
Analysis
The distance a wave travels during one complete cycle
Wavelength
The gathering of intelligence through intercepting signals between people and machines
SIGINT
Mention two sections of the IR spectrum
Near IR
Short Wave IR
Medium Wave IR
Long Wave IR
Far IR
SIGINT is subdivided into three subcategories:
COMINT
ELINT
FISINT
The process of managing and organizing the collection of intelligence information from various sources
Collection Management
The time required for a wave to complete one cycle
Period
The sub-discipline of SIGINT that deals with the interception and analysis of radar emissions
ELINT
Technology allows us to view objects by observing their energy emitted through heat
Infrared (IR)
Intelligence collection concerned with the technical aspects of emitters such as modes, functions, associations, capabilities, limitations, and vulnerabilities
TECHELINT
Satisfy a customer’s request
Collection Management
The number of cycles completed by a wave in one second
Frequency
Relies on gathering information from people
HUMINT
The 3 RADAR categories are
Early warning, acquisition and engagement and fire control
Electro-optical is a type of ________ which is degraded by weather and nightime
GEOINT
Develops and manages collection strategy and optimizes the use of all assets and resources
Collection Manager
Stands for radio detection and ranging
RADAR
The gathering and analysis of intelligence through publicly available sources is known as
OSINT
A military application for laser can be

Dazzlers
Weapon Defense
Defined as intelligence derived from information collected and provided by human sources
HUMINT
Mention one of three principle strategies to help the analyst
–Situational Logic
– Applying Theory
– Comparison
Specific portion of the EM spectrum used for communications
Radio frequency
Intelligence that uses the very specific signatures of items to identify their type or characteristics
MASINT
What type of radar system requires two antennas, one continuously transmitting and one continuously receiving a signal?
Continuous Wave Radar
The process of questioning cooperative sources such as friendly forces, coalition pilots, refugees and freed hostages is called
