Military intelligence, or Aman, produces comprehensive national intelligence estimates for the prime minister and cabinet, daily intelligence reports, risk of war estimates, target studies on nearby Arab countries, and communications intercepts. Aman also conducts across-border agent operations.
|
Aman is an independent service, co-equal with the army, navy and air force. Aman's
estimated staff of 7,000 personnel is currently led by Brigadier General Moshe
Ya'alon. His immediate predecessor was Major General Yehoshua Saguy.
Aman's Foreign Relations Department is responsible for liaison with
foreign intelligence services and the activities of Israeli military attachés
abroad. The Sayeret Maktal General Staff Deep Reconnaissance
Unit is Israel's primary counter-terrorism and intelligence-gathering entity.
Small air force and naval intelligence units operatedas semi-autonomous branches of
Aman. Air force intelligence primarily uses aerial reconnaissance and radio intercepts
to collect information on strength levels of Arab air forces and for target compilation.
In addition to reconnaissance aircraft, pilotless drones are used extensively to observe
enemy installations. Naval intelligence collects data on Arab and Soviet naval activities
in the Mediterranean and prepares coastal studies for naval gunfire missions and beach
assaults.
