Target Analysis

The process of detecting, selecting, and prioritizing targets in concert with information operations (“IO”) underscores the importance of integrating and coordinating a supporting command’s lethal and non-lethal attacks.

IO and Targeting synchronization requires information to enable the destruction, denial, or degradation of vital Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) links and nodes at the right time and place; thus, detailed knowledge of adversary C4ISR resources is essential.

IIT has extensive experience supporting this targeting process. IIT professionals provide assistance integrating IO into high-priority target lists and targeting objectives, identifying and nominating IO-related targets, and interpreting IO-related battle damage and/or combat assessments.
