c. (U) RESOURCE MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT (NAVOPINTCEN-0O1) (1) (U0) During 1987, the Resource Management Department made the following organizational changes: - The Editorial Branch was reduced by one billet because of reductions in video SPIRES production requirements, The Branch was removed from the Management Services Division and reestablished as a separate division (14). - The Mail and Files Branch was moved from the Administrative Support Division (11) to the Management Services Division (13). - The Military Support Division (14) was reduced to a branch and was placed in the Administrative Support Division (11). (2) (U) The Manpower, Personnel, and Training Division focused its effort on manpower/organization/civilian personnel and training programs. The Command authorization was 215 civilians + 8 overages + 2 temporaries; 97 Navy officers + 2 Marine officers and 39 enlisted personnel. On-board personnel strength on 31 December 1987 was: 203 civilians + 8 overages + 2 temporaries + 1 part time; 81 Navy officers + 4 Marine officers and 45 enlisted personnel. An Upward Mobility Program (UMP) position (Intelligence Research Specialist, GS-132-5, target position GS-7) was established in the World Navies Department in November 1987, The following personnel actions were processed during the year: 59 performance awards, 48 promotions, 26 resignations/transfers/ retirements, and 72 recruitments/direct hires. Training plans for the Computer Programmer Analyst and Budget Analyst series were implemented and the Technical Editor Training Plan is in the process of being finalized. Two analysts participated in the Quality of Analysis Program (QAP). Two civilians and a Navy officer participated in the Defense Area Language Studies Program (DALSP) program by studying Arabic, Hindi, and Serbo-Croation. Nineteen employees took Master's degree-level courses at the Defense Intelligence College. All required General Military Training (GMT) courses were presented and the New Employee Orientation program was held on a quarterly basis for new civilian and military personnel. Command-wide participation in the Defense Intelligence Special Career Automated System (DISCAS) reached 100% for the second consecutive year. The Training Administrator continues to review command videotapes for currency of information, attends Intelligence Career Development Program (IDCP) Career Planning Work Group meetings and drafts recommended changes to the IDCP and DISCAS manuals.

e. (U) NAVAL ANALYSIS DEPARTMENT (NAVOPINTCEN-03). During 1987 the Naval Analysis Department refocused its efforts to provide issue oriented analysis that more suited customer requirements. Given this re-emphasis, the most ambitious task undertaken was to produce a briefing on Soviet War Plans. This briefing provided our analyses of the Soviet Navy's contribution to their overall warfighting strategy and its integration into combined arms warfare to numbered Fleet Commanders and their staff, and to other national intelligence community agencies. Other significant events during the year included participation in the annual CANUKUS Maritime Conference in Washington, D.C. and the SACLANT Maritime Conference in Norfolk. (1) (U) Personnel/Organization {a) Department Head, CDR Mike DeRusso was relieved in May by Mr. Larry Cyr. (b) As part of the departmental realignment, the Tactics Division was moved to SPEAR in view of its ASUW tactics focus. (c) The Department also contributed experienced senior and junior analysts to stand up the Current Operations Analytical Support Team (COAST) in the 02 Department, (d) At the end of 1987 the Naval Analysis Department's authorized strength was nineteen civilians and four officers. Actually on board were fifteen civilians and four officers.

(U) WORLD NAVIES DEPARTMENT (NAVOPINTCEN-04). The World Navies Department is responsible for conducting research and analysis of Free/Third Worid naval and air (over water) operations, tactics, and strategies on a current and in-depth basis. By the end of 1987, the number of analysts assigned to Support the World Navies effort stood at twelve, with one military and three civilian billets vacant. In support of the Persian Gulf effort, six World Navies Department billets/personnel were transferred to the Crisis Action Team to join command analytical assets reassigned from other departments. The World Navies Department retained responsibility for producing in-depth products and studies in support of U.S. operations in the Persian Gulf/North Arabian Sea. (1) (U) The department's effort was focused on those countries which posed the greatest potential threat to U.S. naval forces and/or ability to operate their ships worldwide. The department continued production of the Free/Third World Weekly Intelligence Summary which kept fleet and national-level planners informea of high-interest free/third world events on a real-time basis. Distribution of this summary message is tailored to meet the needs of the four major fleet/ocean areas (Pacific, Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Indian Ocean). Additionally, department personnel presented formal and informal briefings on free/third world navies' operations, strategy, and tactics. A significant portion of this effort included prebriefing and mid-tour debriefing of officers ({ALUSNA'S) en route to/from overseas duty stations. Department analysts also briefed operational commanders en route to/from fleet duties, as well as foreign dignitaries conducting high level visits in the Washington area. World Navies Department analysts represented this Command at numerous community-wide intelligence conferences throughout the Washington, D.C. area as well as at field sites such as COMUSFORCARIB, Key West; COMUSNAYFORKOREA, Seoul, South Korea; and Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
(2) (U) One Department analyst participated in the DIA sponsored DALASP (Defense Advanced Language and Area Studies Program). He is working on an Indian Ocean Zone of Peace Thesis. Significant Department production (in message format) during 1987 included studies of: The Iranian Suicide Boat Tactics and Threat; Iranian Mine Warfare Threat, Capabilities and Operations; Iran/Iraq Shipborne and Airborne Anti-ship Attack Capabilities and Tactics; Iranian Special Forces: Marine Commandos and Naval Marines; and the production of over 130 in-depth Maritime OPINTEL Supplements (MOS) detailing current military/political events world wide. Department hard copy production included eleven in-depth articles for the command‘s Special Intelligence Brief publication and a Maritime posture statement on Venezuela. Additionally, Department personnel provided CNO's briefers with real-time intelligence support throughout the year. g. (U) SUBMARINE WARFARE OPERATIONS RESEARCH DEPARTMENT (SWORD) (NAVOPINTCEN-05). During 1987, the SWORD continued to provide U.S. operational forces with high interest, all-scurce, tailored intelligence support. This support included the production of another hard copy threat publication, major revisions to two others, transmittal of numerous tactical support messages, production of several articles for the Command's hard copy Special Intelligence Brief, and numerous briefings to Fleet, national, and international audiences. 11 addition, the SWORD has made significant progress toward integrating several software development initiatives with existiny systems, and various state-of-the-art, off-the-shelf computer hardware and sottware to develop a SWORD automated intelligence support system. (1) N Production
i. (U) INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS DEPARTMENT (NAVOPINTCEN-07). In an effort to provide the Command with ADP support specialists, the Department organizational structure was realigned to form two divisions, Current Operations (71) and Developmental Operations (72). Tasking completed include: the relocation of personnel and equipment into the "New Butler Hut", relocation of the SEABASS system, extensive preparation for the IG Inspection which included continued success in the implementation of internal and external ADP security regulations in addition to a thorough update of Command ADP security documentation, (1) (U) Sea Watch III. The Sea Watch III portion of the IAIPS development contract was extended through March 1988 due to the contractor identifying approximately one month of previously unobligated funding. Sea Watch III Initial Operating Capability (I0C) is now estimated to be late 1988/early 1989 depending on which functions are completed by the end of March 1988. (2) (U) Analyst Readiness Tool (ART). Critical Design Review for ART was completed in June and implementation commenced in October. ART is scheduled to be ready for integration with Sea Watch III in March 1989. ary ee te = ~we (5) (U) Submarine Warfare Operations Research Department (SWORD) Data Bases (SDB). The final Software Requirement Specifications were approved and design of SDB commenced in November. Delivery of design documentation and Critical Design Review (CDR) will occur in March 1988 with implementation commencing after design approval.
(6) (U) Definitive Operations Reports Analysis (DORA). A complete review of ‘the DORA data base structure and system performance was conducted resulting in recommendations to upgrade hardware in the short term and redesign the data base for implementation on more capable hardware (probably Sun) in the long term. (7) (U0) ELINT Processing. Improved graphics displays were implemented on the Developmental Unified Elint Tracker (DUET). DUET continues to provide correlated output products to Sea Watch II. The first two Prototype Analyst Workstations (PAWS) hosted on Hewlet Packard desktop computers became operational, PAWS provides correlated data streams in an extremely timely Manner in support of critical I & W functions. (8) (U) Data Management. Efforts continue to evaluate incoming traffic, in an effort to eliminate, reorganize, and manage data from outside sources and to effectively route the data within our own ADP architecture, (9) (U) Microcomputer Enhancements. Purchased thirty-five Zenith 2-248 IBM PC-AT compatible microcomputers in addition to thirty Zeniths ordered in 1986 which arrived in 1987. The standard software suite purchased for all 2-248 systems is Multimate and Word Perfect word processing, Enable 1.15 for integrated word processing/spreadsheet/data base/business charts, and Borland Pro-key keyboard macro programming. Procedures to exchange word processing files between Zeniths and DEC 350s were developed in-house. j. ____: MERCHANT OPERATIONS AND ANALYSIS DEPARTMENT (NAVOPINTCEN-08). During 1987, the Merchant Operations and Analysis Department continued to provide Fleet, National, and DOD consumers with information and analysis concerning all-flag, world-wide merchant marine operations. The data provided contained analyses of the capabilities and characteristics of merchant shipping platforms as well as information concerning their location and current activities. (1) Highlights of 1987 activity included: - (a) Jf Support to Fleet Commanders and ships deployed to the Persian Gulf which included: if This effort was | recognized and praised by the highest levels of government and ‘used to implement Naval strategies in the Persian Gulf.
5 ~ "Iran: Merchant Marine Identification Guide", a hard copy publication which identified, described, and provided the best available ship class photography of ships in the Iranian merchant fleet was produced and distributed to a broad range of Fleet and National level consumers to meet multiple requirements, Due to recent ADP enhancements, production of this publication took only fifteen days from conception to production. The facility with which this publication was produced bodes well for planned future hard copy production efforts.
Se (c) Other production highlights included: 1. (U) A Naval Intelligence Command Special Intelligence Study, "Soviet Wartime Employment of Auxiliaries and Civil Fleets" was produced in cooperation with the Naval Analysis Department. This study discussed the perceived wartime roles of the Soviet Fleet auxiliary forces, examining the abilities and potentials of selected platforms in support of combat actions. The paper further postulated uses of the Soviet civil fleets in augmenting these and other logistics and rear service functions. 2. [ The system through which operational intelligence support is produced to fleet and other consumers which allows more efficient use of personnel and computer time was restructured. The "Regionalized Support System" calls for daily production of a series of carefully geographically tailored support products to which consumers can easily be added or deleted from distribution. The new system has reduced manpower expenditure to the fleet support task, allowed better support to those customers with an absolute requirement for specially tailored support products, and permitted the dedication of ° analysts to long term analytical production.
3. PF Daily reporting to CNO, Fleet CINC's, and FOSIF'S with information on locations and activities of high interest — merchant shipping was continued. In addition, during 1987, another product reporting on locations of { _ merchant ships changed from a weekly product to a message released three day s~a-week. (ad) Other operationally significant events included: lf Reception of tasking and commencement of planning for expansion ot the merchant shipping data base to include all shipping 100 GRT (Gross Registered Tons) or greater. This expansion will double the size of the current data base to include approximately 86,000 platforms. en ea ——~ 5. (U) Support to Joint Maritime Information Element PMO was continued. (2) (U) During 1987, several department representatives conducted travel, attended conferences, or presented briefings. (a) { In April and May, a member conducted an around-the-world trip, wherein he, inter alia, provided technical support and advice to” and attended the NATO Military Conference-161 in Brussels, Belgium, ~—e RO te ermremmrn eS pepper
(c) (U) At the invitation of the Canadian Forces, a briefing on Soviet merchant fleet capabilities was provided at the Canadian Forces Staff College in Toronto, Canada in July. (d) (U) Per request of USCENTCOM, an arilyst was sent TAD to USCENTCOM for two weeks (August-September 1987) to assist in organizing a Naval/Merchant ship oriented section. en (£) (U) A briefing was presented on the capabilities of the Cuban merchant fleet to the community Cuba Conference at the DIAC. This briefing was subsequently provided, as a paper, to the Interamerican Naval Intelligence Conference. (3) (U) NAVOPINTCEN 82 attended three war games at the Naval War College, Newport, RI, to provide expertise and assistance to gaming staff on the subject of ocean background Shipping during wartime. The gaming scenarios have resulted in several tasks concerning the anticipated nature and character of ocean shipping in a wartime environment. k. (U) STRIKE PROJECTION EVALUATION AND ANTIAIR WARFARE RESEARCH (SPEAR) DEPARTMENT (NAVOPINTCEN-09) (1) (U) Significant Highlights: (a) CDR James C. Sherlock reported aboard as the new Department Head in November 1987. (b) Initiated the development of, and participated in, a Mediterranean Tactics Analysis Team (MEDTAT) under CINCUSNAVEUR sponsorship and COMSIXTHFLT Chairmanship. Served as the CONUS coordinator for MEDTAT intelligence inputs from other national/service agencies and commands.

(U) NAVOPINTCEN DETACHMENT NEWPORT, RI (1) (U) Most of the Detachment's effort during 1987 was devoted to providing credible Red play in war games sponsored by the Naval War College (NWC) and by theater and fleet Commanders~in-Chief. These war games varied widely in size, scope, objectives, and duration and consequently required differing levels of Detachment commitment. Large games such as Global-87 involved more than 1,000 participants and required Detachment personnel to play Red, umpire Red, and act as Red and Blue intelligence officers, Other games involved two dozen
students and required only one Detachment representative to perform all these tasks. Detachment personnel played both seminar and Enhanced Navy War Gaming System (ENWGS) games in 1987. The WGD completed installation of ENWGS in February, and the Detachment helped determine best use of this new computer system. In December, the Detachment participated in the first "distributed" theater game in which both game players and control elements were dispersed to various CINCPAC sites. To improve quality, Detachment compiled war gaming statistics, developed new gaming models, explored new uses for game support computers, rewrote the "Wargaming Red Book", and attended a variety of professionally enhancing workshops.

(e) (U) The Detachment updated its Wargaming Red Book, which provides current and projected Soviet Navy capabilities for use in war games. This publication received worldwide distribution. In late 1987, the Detachment began to "computerize" the Red Book is speed production and facilitate updates, (£) (9) To enhance their ability to play credible Red, detachment personnel attended seminars and workshops dealing with Soviet military thinking. Examples of these opportunities included a "Current Strategy" forum, a U.S./FGR Bilateral seminar, a "Thinking Red in Wargaming” workshop, and a "Sources of Soviet Naval Doctrine" seminar. (g) (U) Detachment commitment to war games remained high in 1987, despite a reduction in personnel. To ease the administrative load on each war gamer, the Detachment acquired five Zenith micro computers in November. Detachment personnel planned several data bases to expedite war game preparation. Examples of these include a Red Order of Battle data base, a Concept of Operations data base, and a Wargaming Red Book data base. (2) (U0) The Detachment supported the CNWS primarily through participation in CNWS-sponsored war games. Six such games were played in 1987: Global-87, a Crisis/Contingency game, a CINCUSNAVEUR Mediterranean Strategy game, and three Navy laboratory games. The Detachment also provided intelligence oversight on several CNWS projects and "Red representation" at CNWS forums,
(3) [ The Detachment provided one officer for intelligence support to SSG's VI and VII in 1987. SSG VI examined strengths and weaknesses in the maritime strategy with particular focus on the Atlantic Area of Responsibility. SSG VII began examination of strategic political, economic, and military issues in the Pacific. Major SSG events supported by NAVOPINTCEN DET in 1987 included: DATE EVENT SSG VI 30 Jan CNO/CNO Executive Panel Briefing 08-13 Feb — SSG VI Seminar War Game 17-19 Mar Fleet CINC's Conference 02 Apr CNO Executive Panel Brief 07 Apr CNO Briefing 23-24 Apr Briefings at SHAPE and CINCUSNAVEUR 06-08 May CINCPACFLT/USCINCPAC/SUBPAC/SURFPAC Briefing 01-15 Jun SSG VI Project Briefing SSG VII Aug-Oct SSG VII Indoctrination/Familiarization 30 Aug CNO Briefing 16--17 Sep CINCLANTFLT/SUBLANT/Type CDR Briefings O01 Oct CNO Briefing 05-07 Oct PACOM Area Briefings - Hawaii 28-30 Oct CINC's Conference 09-12 Nov SSG VII Seminar Wer Game 14-22 Nov SSG Briefings - Japan and Korea 05-12 Dec SSG/USCINCPAC TRIAD I Seminar War Game 14-22 Dec SSG VII visit PRC/Singapore/Australia (4) [  rhrough liaison with NAVOPINTCEN and other intelligence agencies, the Detachment arranged lectures and briefings over a wide range of Soviet military issues for detachinent and WGD staff. Areas examined in 1987 included mining, Soviet naval construction trends, Soviet maritime strategy, Soviet surface warfare trends, and Soviet naval command and control. (5) | The Detachment prepared and coordinated the third and fourth Space Workshops sponsored by OP-943. Workshop III concentrated on space support to ASUW and amphibious warfare. Workshop IV examined space support during hostilities. Approximately ninety people, including fifteen to twenty flag officers, attended these workshops. (6) is with guidance from a detachment officer (CDR), the Detachment's reserve unit: wrote a Soviet Theater of Military Operations Handbook that serves as a ready reference for Red players and umpires; created a computerized Red Order of Battle data base that allows fast, easy development of OOB's for war games; prepared a sonobuoy pattern template that is used in nearly every war game for realistic ASW play; and participated in Open Road~-87, Battle Group-87, and Global-87.
(7) (U) On 16 June, the Secretary of the Navy, the Honorable James H. Webb, Jr., visited the Detachment. m. (U) RESERVE AFFAIRS (1) (0) The largest growth to date of NAVOPINTCEN's Reserve Program with mobilization billets totaling 352 (221 officers, 131 enlisted) was witnessed in 1987. The growth in billets was matched by a growth in the number of dedicated NAVOPINTCEN reserve units from five to nine. New units were established on 1 October 1987 at Willow Grove, PA; Dallas, TX; Washington, D.C.; Glenview IL; and Louisville, KY while the unit at Norfolk, VA was disestablished. Planning continued for twenty-two additional mobilization billets to support SPEAR at a site yet to be selected, (2) (U) While projects were being developed for the new units, a review of existing departmental support by the reserves was conducted. This resulted in the reassignment of reserves to departments which corresponded to their mobilization billet. Relatediy, the issue of additional accesses for the reserves was addressed to SSO Navy via NISC CSO. In order for the reserves to provide important and timely support as well as to receive meaningful mobilization training, the special access must be made available to them. For most, this meant PM. A careful review by NAVOPINTCEN's Reserve Liaison Officer of each billet's requirement resulted in a request for over 100 reservists to be granted access to PM. Informal liaison with SSO Navy indicates that the request will be approved in 1988. (3) (U) Because of the increase in numbers of dedicated reservists and units, a more "tightly organized" approach to all aspects of NAVOPINTCEN's reserve management was initiated, particularly with respect to ACDUTRAS. Specific ACDUTRA periods were established along with a formalized method for requesting quotas, This method provides for better planning by the reservists and NAVOPINTCEN and allows for the orderly and timely submission of administrative requirements, i.e. security indoctrination requests, FITREPS, etc. (4) (U) In all 1987 was a benchmark year in terms of mutual support between NAVOPINTCEN and its dedicated reservists, Contributions by the reserves cut across the spectrum of all departments coupled with an attendant commitment by this command to its reserve units.

J In July, the NAVOPINTCEN Headquarters title and NOIC HQ message address were officially changed to better reflect the Navy-wide liaison functions of the office. The change has also helped to correct some confusion and misdirected mail and message communications related to the use of "Headquarters" in the previous mail and message addresses, 4, I NAVLO continued to provide assistance to Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel visiting the Agency. This assistance, especially involving multiple office visits, such as Quality of Analysis Program visitors, included providing a familiar and central sponsor, identifying appropriate points of contact, scheduling appointments, establishing itineraries, preparing visitor parking and Agency access, paperwork, escorting, and official mail/courier service.
(b) (U) SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENTS/EVENTS 2. (U) In January, NAVLO received a Wang Enhanced Work Station making it compatible with office automation systems within NSA. This system was purchased for NAVLO by NSA using Navy provided funds. Although presently a stand alone station, there are future prospects for connectivity with appropriate NSA organizations for electronic mail and access to administrative data bases. Already in use are several time saving programs developed for the Wang by NSA and utilized by NAVLO on a daily basis. System maintenance and training are available in-house, 3. (U) In January, an Index Data Base to catalog and control hard copy SIGINT products was established.

Planning for the new NAVINTCOM building in Suitland, Maryland is in initial stages. b. js the secure video-teleconferencing link between NAVOPINTCEN and the Pentagon, installed between January and May 1987, provided round-the-clock video connectivity between the sites. The system is capable of video, audio, and computer graphic transmissions. Classified discussion can be conducted through the SCI level. Commencement of the DNI's morning briefing live by NAVOPINTCEN analysts from Suitland occurred on 4 May 1987. By late 1987, final planning was underway for the administrative transfer of personnel from CNO Current Intelligence Division (OP-092I) (CID). Utilizing existing CNO CID personnel, a new NAVOPINTCEN Detachment (NAVOPINTCEN DET CNO) will be formed in 1988 to provide intelligence support to OPNAV.

Reorientation and refocusing was achieved in response to world events and associated intelligence requirements. Command information processing and production capabilities have been upgraded through use of state-of-the-art hardware, software, and video technologies. Continuing increases and refinements in user intelligence requirements from the Washington decision making levels out to the fleet operating forces ensure that the same challenges will remain before the command through the 1980's and into the 1990's,
