Luncheon Highlights ISR Operations |
The March luncheon featured Don Hudson, technical director, 480th Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) Wing, Langley Air Force Base. He gave a very enlightening presentation on the role of cyber and information technology in ISR operations. Technological advances in communications systems and processes have undergirded the evolution of tactical ISR processing, exploitation and dissemination, which have influenced changes in scope, complexity, scale, volume and type of operations. The close bond between the communications and ISR community has produced amazing warfighting results: 25,000 missions per year; 5 million signals intelligence reports; 2.5 million imagery targets; 1.4 million imagery products; 500 high value individuals killed/captured; and 1,000 improvised explosive devices discovered |
