b  .  ( U )  Organizational  Changes 
the 
(1)  jWy Command  Restructuring.   Early  1983,  and  as  a  result  of 
JanuaryRetreat  mentioned  above,  the  restructing  of  the  Command 
was  accomplished  in  the  following  three  phases: 
Phase  I.   Changed  the  command  name  to  NAVOPINTCEN,  a 
title  which. rt^ore  accurately  describe  the  Command  mission  and  its 
current  size  and  organized  into  Departments  which  is  in  line  with 
other  Navy  organizations.   Reestablished  a  strong  Current  Operations 
Department  (COD)  (i.e.,  NOSIC)  by  returning  to  the  COD  experienced 
Desk  Heads  and  the  Soviet  Navy  watchstanders  billets.   A  stronger 
I&W  capability,  more  thorough  junior  analyst  development  and  clearer 
lines  of  authority  and  responsibility  resulted. 
Phase  II.   Established  the  Non-Soviet/Warsaw  Pact 
Navies  effort  as  a  separate  Department.   This  action  was  in  concert 
with  Congressional  intent,  recognized  the  growing  strength  of  this 
effort  and  removed  it  from  the  auspices  of  a  management  structure 
which  has 
   Strengthened  the  role  of  the 
Officer  by  concentrating  tasking,  collection  requirements 
long  range  planning,  and  policy  action  responsibilities 
cognizance.   Established  a  "Policy  Action  Staff,"  which 
group  of  top-flight  officers,  under  the  Operations 
Officers  direction  to  handle  special  policy  issues,  architectural, 
liaison,  and  selected  substantive  and  special  projects  within  the 
Command. 
Operations 
oversight, 
wi thi n  his 
is  a  small 
Phase  III.   Consolidated  all  personnel, 
administrative,  budget,  training,  security,  physical  plant,  and
production  functions  in  an  upgraded  Administrative  Department  called 
the  Resource  Management  Department.   Brought  together  all  in-depth 
Soviet  analysis  into  the  Naval  Analysis  Department  (NAD).   Major 
divisions  within  the  NAD  now  focus  on  Soviet  strategies  (C^, 
concept  of  operations,  0P-009J  interaction),  Soviet  operational 
readiness  (SAG,  SCORE,  SNARE),  and  tactical  and  topical  warfare 
analysis . 
c .  ( U )  Resource  Manageme nt  Department  (formerly  Operations  Support 
Division)  (NAVOPINTCEN-OIT.   Coincident  with  the  mid-year 
reconstructuring  of  the  Command,  the  Operations  Support  Division 
(0SD)  was  upgraded  to  Department  level  and  named  the  Resource 
Management  Department.   The  new  department  included  the  Personnel 
and  Budget  Offices  from  the  Command  Staff  and  the  former  0SD. 
Fiscal,  Manpower  and  Training,  and  Management  Services  are  the  major 
elements  (divisions). 
Fiscal  Division  was  formed  from  personnel  of  the  Command  Staff 
and  is  responsible  for  resources  managed  under  the  Programming, 
Planning  and  Budget  System  (PPBS)  and  providing  guidance  on  fiscal 
management.

d .  ( U )  Current  Operations  Department  (formerly  Naval  Ocean 
Surveillance  Inf ormationHCenter )  (NAV0PINTCEN-02TT   As  a  resu 1 t 
the  Command  reorganization,  the  following  administrative  or 
functional  changes  were  effected  in  June: 
-The  billets  for  Current  Operations  personnel  supporting 
surface,  air,  and  submarine  analysis  and  their  assistants  were 
of
administratively  transferred  from  the  Naval  Analysis  Department  (03) 
to  the  Naval  Operations  Division  (21)* 
-Four  SCORE  analyst  billets  were  transferred  from  Naval 
Operations  Division  (21)  to  the  Readiness  Division  (32). 
-The  Archivist  Branch  was  established  in  the  Naval  Operations 
Division.   The  duties  and  responsibilities  established  for  this 
branch  include  statistical  support  for  the  Command  developed  from 
the  historical  and  current  data  bases  of  SEAWATCH;  responses  to 
internal  and  external  requirements  for  non-statistical  SEAWATCH 
information  relating  to  naval  deployment  histories;  management  of 
data  base  maintenance,  and  the  implementation  of  new  procedures  for 
naval  related  matters  in  coordination  with  the  Intelligence  Systems 
Department's  (NAVOPINTCEN-07 )  procedures.

(1)  ^B|  Merchant  Operations  Division.   In  response  to  a 
continuing  tasking  from  the  National  Security  Council  (NSC),  the 
Merchant  Division  commenced  production  of  a  comprehen^v^dai  1  y 
report  on  all  merchant  shipping  en  route  to  or  in  ■■■■■with 
special  emphasis  on  ■■■■■■■■  Four  analysts  have  been 
assigned  to  the  project  full-time  as  well  as  several  others  on  a 
part-time  basis. 
(a)  (U)  Organizational  Changes.   During  1983  the  Division 
underwent  a  major  organizational  change  designed  to  enhance  command 
capabilities  in  the  production  of  in-depth,  finished  intelligence 
products  concerning  various  aspects  of  merchant  marine  operations- 
Two  GM-13  billets  were  established  in  January  of  1983  to  provide 
first-line  supervisory  management  to  the  branches  created  in  this 
reorganization.   During  the  final  quarter  of  the  year  the  command 
commenced  preliminary  evaluations  of  the  feasibility  of  a  merger 
between  the  Merchant  Division  of  NAVOPINTCEN  and  the  Merchant
Division    of    NISC.      Initial    reports    suggests    that    the   potential 
production    gains    from   such    a   merger    outweigh    the    potential    problems 
currently   anticipated    and    that    such    a   merger    should   occur    during 
calendar   year    1984.      The   department   created   will    fall    under    the 
OPCON    of    NAVOPINTCEN.

(c)  (U)  Maritime  In-Pepth  Analysis  Branch  (MIOAB). 
  Established  in  March  1983,  this  was  a  new  analysis 
desk  to  study  the  command,  ^control ,  and  communications  capabilities 
of  the  Soviet  Ministry  of  the  Maritime  Fleet.   Historically,  ships 
subordinate  to  the  Ministry  have  directly  supported  Soviet  naval 
operations  and  JH^HHHflHI  have  participated  in  Soviet  General 
Staff/Navy  Main  Staff  directed  exercises.   An  active  research  effort 
will  culminate  in  a  historical  library  containing  all-source 
documents  on  this  subject.   From  that  knowledge,  the  desk  will
become  the  NAVOPINTCEN  single  point-of -contact  for  Soviet  Merchant 
C^  evaluation  and  will  perform  analysis  on  Soviet  exercises  and 
operations  involving  merchant  ships.

submitted  a  paper  for  the  Interagency  Committee  on  Piracy  meeting 
which  was  held  at  the  Federal  Emergency  Management  Agency  (FEMA)  on 
6  July  1983.   MIDAB  presented  a  30-minute  brief  at  the  meeting, 
which  was  attended  by  representatives  of  MSC,  State,  Coast  Guard, 
MARAD,  and  the  IC  staff.   The  piracy  paper  will  soon  be  released  as 
a  study. 
-(U)  Compiled  with  NISC-34  a  point  paper  in  September 
for  CNO  concerning  the  Soviet  Merchant  Marine.   The  data  outlined 
the  background  of  the  Soviet  merchant  fleet,  world  trade, 
information  on  competition,  rate  cutting,  several  graphs  and  charts 
on  fleet  development  and  future  projections. 
Continued  a  weekly  message  to  provide  information 
on  all-flag  merchant  tanker  trade  operations  in  the  Persian  Gulf  and 
Red  Sea  Saudi  Arabian  ports.   Within  this  report,  the  Branch 
continued  to  provide  daily  reporting  of  U.S.  Flag/U.S.  Controlled 
merchant  ships  transiting  the  Red  Sea  and  the  Bab-el -Mandeb  Straits 
in  response  to  a  CINCPACFLT  tasking  in  November  1981.

(1)  Overview   During  1983,  the  Naval  Analysis  Division  was 
reoriented  and  its  organizational  status  elevated  to  that  of  a 
Department.   This  action  was  undertaken  to  facilitate  a  more 
definitive  approach  to  the  understanding  of  Soviet  wartime  concepts 
of  operation  and  the  threat  they  present  to  U.S.  naval  forces.   This
new  orientation  emphasizes  analysis  of  Soviet  military  strategy  in 
terms  of  overall  force  employment,  doctrine  and  philosophy,  as  well 
as,  analysis  of  specific  Soviet  combined  arms  operations  and  tactics 
which  are  most  likely  to  be  used  in  time  of  war.

(NAVOPINTCSN-07). 
(1)  (U)  In  1983,  an  Intelligence  Systems  Department  was 
created  by  combining  two  Divisions,  the  Data  Services  Division  and 
the  Definitive  Operations  Reports  Analysis  (DORA)  Division,  into  a 
single  Department  as  part  of  the  overall  reorganization  of  the 
Command.   Other  major  evolutions  occuring  in  1983  included  the  first 
installations  of  Integrated  Automated  Intelligence  Processing  System 
(IAIPS)  equipment,  fundamental  redirections  of  the  Command's  major 
ADP  programs,  and  the  initiation  of  major  new  ADP  programs. 
(2)  (U)  The  integration  of  the  Data  Services  and  DORA 
divisions  served  a  number  of  purposes: 
(a)  Consolidation  of  all  ADP  and  ADP 
within  a  single  department,  thereby  increasing

system;  and  conducted  decisive  evaluations  of  various  data  base 
management  packages  compatible  with  DEC  350  operations.   Finally, 
DORA  has  fully  integrated  DORA  ADP  operations  into  the  I A I  PS  Local 
Area  Network  (LAN)  architecture. 
(3)  (U)  Several  significant  installations  of  I A I  PS  systems 
were  made  into  NAVOPINTCEN  during  1983. 
(a)  In  January  1983,  the  first  major  installation  of  I A I  PS 
equipment  was  made  when  the  Interim  Front  End  Filter  (IFEF)  became 
operational.   IFEF  runs  on  an  I A I  PS  host  processor,  the  DEC  VAX 
11/780,  and  provides  a  great  deal  of  capability  to  NAVOPINTCEN 
including:   the  preprocessing  of  SEAWATCH  message  formats;  extensive 
data  input  control  to  SEAWATCH;  analyst  alerts;  narrative 
processing;  and  data  filtering.   IFEF  has  increased  the  throughput 
of  informaton  through  NAVOPINTCEN  and  increased  the  flexibility  to 
make  major  changes  to  NAVOPINTCEN ' s  ADP  architecture. 
(b)  The  first  operational  use  by  NAVOPINTCEN  of  the  IAIPS 
alpha  numeric  work  station,  the  DEC  350,  was  made  in  1983.   An 
initial  installation  of  eighteen  DEC  350s  were  made  in  1983.   These 
work  stations  were  used  in  a  variety  of  ways,  including  program 
development,  work  station  operation  of  NAVOPINTCEN f s  ELINT 
processor,  analytical  support  data  manipulation  routines,  and  word 
processing  and  data  processing  applications. 
(c)  The  IAIPS  Local  Area  Network  (LAN)  was  first  installed 
in  NAVOPINTCEN  spaces.   This  LAN  allows  analyst  work  stations  to 
access  any  number  of  aDpl i cations ,  regardless  of  which  host 
processor  the  application  resides.   This  LAN  provides  the  foundation 
of  the  future  development  of  NAVOPINTCEN « s  major  ADP  project, 
SEAWATCH  III. 
(d)  Initial  installation  and  operational  evaluation  of  the 
IAIPS  Message  Distribution  System  was  made.   This  system  provides 
for  the  electrical  distribution  and  manipulation  of  incoming 
messages-   NAVOPINTCEN  analysts  were  trained  on  its  use,  analyst 
message  profiles  were  developed  for  the  system,  and  operations  at  a 
GENSER  level  were  conducted. 
(e)  After  an  extensive  development  period,  the  SEAWATCH 
III  A  Level  Specification  was  approved  by  the  Government.   This 
specification  provides  the  foundation  for  the  development  of  the 
replacement  and  improvement  of  NAVOPINTCEN1 s  current  operational 
intelligence  system,  SEAWATCH  II.
(4)  (U)  A  number  of  significant  changes  were 
to  the  direction  of  priority  of  major  ADP  projects 
for  NAVOPINTCEN,  including: 
effected  in  1983 
conducted  by  or 
(a)  Two  major  Navy  Intelligence  ADP  programs,  the  IAIPS 
SEAWATCH  III  and  the  OSIS  Baseline  Upgrade  (OBU)  programs,  were 
directed  to  be  coordinated  so  as  to  reduce  duplicative  ADP 
development  and  to  increase  the  operational  utility  of  the  resulting 
systems.   This  redirection  has  already  consolidated  the  development 
of  replacement  analyst  work  stations  and  established  a  methodology 
to  share  the  development  of  software  modules. 
(b)  Another  major  change  to  the  SEAWATCH  program  was  the 
direction  to  implement  at  NAVOPINTCEN  as  early  as  possible  the  IAIPS 
work  station  and  host  processor,   A  project  to  provide  NAVOPINTCEN 
analysts  IAIPS  capabilities  in  1984  was  initiated,  thus  providing 
the  building  blocks  for  subsequent  installation  of  SEAWATCH  and  OBU. 
(c)  In  order  to  take  advantage  of  capabilities  provided  by 
the  installation  of  the  IAIPS  LAN  and  DEC  350  work  station,  a 
project  was  initiated  to  replace  the  SEAWATCH  II  terminals  with  DEC 
350s  in  1984.   This  project  will  contribute  to  SEAWATCH  III 
development  as  well  as  eliminate  the  increasingly  costly  and 
difficult  maintenance  of  the  current  SEAWATCH  terminal. 
(d)  Finally,  a  project  was  initiated  to  include  an  early 
implementation  of  SEAWATCH  III  merchant  capabilities.   Developments 
in  1983  included  the  installation  of  a  host  processor  which  was  used 
for  initial  merchant  operations  and  will  be  used  for  more 
sophisticated  application  in  1984  and  beyond. 
(5)  (U)  In  addition  to  the  installation  at  NAVOPINTCEN  of 
various  IAIPS  projects,  a  number  of  significant  projects  were 
initiated  in  1983: 
(a)  The  Developmental  Unified  ELINT  Testbed  (DUET)  project 
at  NOSC  was  established  at  NOSC,  San  Diego.   This  project  will 
provide  interim  ELINT  processing  capabilities  at  NAVOPINTCEN  for 
operational  evaluation  and  provide  proven  ADP  capabilities  to  the 
SEAWATCH  III  and  OBU  projects.   A  team  of  government  and  contractor 
personnel  was  established  and  software  development  commenced. 
(b)  The  Developmental  Submarine  Analysis  Testbed  (DSAT) 
project  was  also  established  at  NOSC.   This  project  will  develop 
improved  capabilities  to  support  the  submarine  analyst.   Based  on 
NAVOPINTCEN  and  Fleet  requirements,  a  team  of  NOSC  personnel  was 
formed  and  significant  software  and  hardware  developments  were  nvade.
(c)  Finally,  a  major  new  project, 
initiated.   Based  on  |HB  requi  rements ,  this  project  will  provide  a 
significant  increase  in  analytical  support  to  NAVOPINTCEN ' s 
Detachment  operations. 
(6)  (U)  A  number  of  other  significant  events  affecting 
NAVOPINTCEN ' s  ADP  environment  occurred  in  1983: 
(a)  NAVOPINTCEN's  Newport  Detachment  received  a 
significant  ADP  capability  with  the  installation  of  two  IAIPS  DEC 
350  work  stations.   These  work  stations  will  be  used  for  word 
processing,  data  base  operations,  and  data  manipulation  in  support 
of  Newport  War  Gaming  and  other  operations. 
(b)  The  Intelligence  Systems  Department  assumed 
responsibility  for  manning  a  sixty  hour  a  week  watch,  the  System*s 
Manager  position.   This  watch  provides  direct  systems  support  and 
control  to  NAVOPINTCEN  0600-1800  on  weekdays. 
(c)  The  testing  and  development  of  a  new  operating  system, 
N0S/BE,  was  conducted  for  SEAWATCH  II.   When  installed  in  January 
1984,  this  operating  system  will  allow  a  significant  increase  in 
on-line  disk  storage  and  a  number  of  operational  improvements  to 
SEAWATCH  II. 
(d)  NAVOPINTCEN  and  NAVOPINTCEN  reserve  personnel 
implemented  a  number  of  analyst  and  administrative  data  base 
programs,  including  programs  in  support  of  merchant  operations, 
submarine  and  air  analysis,  library  operations,  and  tasking 
management. 
(e)  NAVOPINTCEN  ADP  equipment  received  a  complete  TEMPEST 
i  nspection. 
j.  (U)  Reserve  Units. 
(1)  (U)  NR  NAVOPINTCEN  0566.   Commanding  Officer:   CAPT 
Charles  F.  TURGE0N,  USNR-R;  Executive  Officer:   CDR  M.  A.  F0URNIER, 
USNR-R. 
The  largest  of  the  Naval  Reserve  Intelligence  Program  (NRIP) 
units  supporting  this  Command  is  NAVOPINTCEN-0566.   With  75  officer 
and  enlisted  personnel,  this  unit  is  able  to  provide  watchstanding, 
analytical  and  other  operational  intelligence  support  to  five  of  the 
seven  NAVOPINTCEN  Departments. 
During  1983,  the  majority  of  this  Reserve  support  was  focused 
in  the  Current  Operations  Department  where  NAVOPINTCEN-0566 
personnel  stood  watches  and  provided  analyses  for  the  Naval  and 
Merchant  Operations  Divisions  both  on  a  daily  basis  and  during  two
