US Army’s New Intelligence Technologies

May 15, 2014

The following article was published in today’s edition of Steven Aftergood’s “Government Secrecy” blog on the Federation of American Scientists (FAS) website:

ARMY VIEWS EMERGING INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGIES

"Emerging Intelligence Technologies" is the theme of the latest issue of the U.S. Army’s Military Intelligence Professional Bulletin (MIPB), January-March 2014.

"Rapid technology developments in response to urgent wartime requirements have brought the intelligence community (IC) some tremendous new capabilities. Advancement in the areas of biometrics, battlefield forensics, miniaturization, SIGINT terminal guidance, DCGS-A, and distributed processing have been vital to the success of Military Intelligence (MI) and the Army," wrote Maj. Gen. Robert P. Ashley.

"This issue of MIPB looks at several of these capabilities and their integration into our formations."

The new Bulletin was obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.
