CDASA 2
_______________ is the analytical process used
by joint intelligence organizations to produce
intelligence estimates and other intelligence
products in support of the Joint Force Commander's decision-making process. -
answerAnswer: Joint Intelligence Preparation of the Environment
(JIPOE)
True or False: JIPOE and IPB products are generally the same in purpose, focus, and
level of detail. - answerFalse
The purpose of JIPOE is to support the JFC by
determining the probable____ and most likely
___ for the adversary and other relevant actors
throughout the OE, whereas IPB is specifically
designed to support the individual operations of the component commands. - answerA.
Intent and COA
The JIPOE process is comprised of four steps.
a. Step One _______________________.
b. Step Two _______________________ .
c. Step Three_______________________.
d. Step Four ________________________. - answer1. Define the Operating
Environment (OE)
2. Describe the impact of the OE
3. Evaluate the adversary and other relevant actors
4. Determine adversary/actor courses of action (COA)
Step One consists of seven steps and it is
describes as defining the areas of operations and interest within the operational
environment to focus attention on a specific geographic area for adversary, terrain, and
weather effect analysis. Which of the following steps are included in Step One? Select
one or multiple answers. - answerA. Identifying the joint force's operational area.
B. Defining the mission and JFC's intent.
C. Determining the significant characteristics of the
operational environment.
D. Identifying the limits of the joint force's areas of interest.
Step Two of the JIPOE process evaluates and
, describes broad COAs and the impact of the OE on adversary, friendly, and neutral
military capabilities. It consists of the following: - answera. Develop a geospatial
perspective of the Operational Environment. Develop a systems perspective of the
Operational Environment. Describe the impact of the Operational Environment on both
adversary and friendly capabilities and broad COAs.
True or False: Step Three of the JIPOE process identifies and evaluates the adversary's
capabilities and limitations, current situation, centers of gravity (COGs), and the
doctrine, patterns of operation, and tactics, techniques, and procedures employed by
adversary forces. - answerTrue
Step Four of the JIPOE process builds upon this
holistic view to develop a rough understanding of the adversary's and other relevant
actors' probable intent and future strategy. - answerFalse
Answer: JP 2-01.3 states that step 4 develops a DETAILED understanding, not a
ROUGH understanding.
True or False: The first two steps of the JIPOE process help to provide JFCs,
subordinate commanders, and their staffs with a holistic view of the OE by analyzing the
impact of the OE, assessing adversary doctrine and capabilities, and identifying
adversary COGs and decisive points. - answerFalse: Answer: the first THREE steps...
True or False: DIA manages the DIAP and provides direction and
deconfliction for JIPOE intelligence production
support by Service Intelligence Centers. - answerTrue
The ____ is the focal point for tasking the
production of baseline strategic intelligence analysis in support of current and planned
joint operations in accordance with established Defense Intelligence Analysis Program
(DIAP) procedures. - answerd. DIA and JS J-2
True or False: The basic JIPOE process remains the same across the range of military
operations, regardless of the level of war. - answerTrue
DIA produces a ___________________________
and continuously updates it in support of JIPOE. - answerB. Theater Intelligence
Assessment and Dynamic
Threat Assessment (DTA)
Statement of Fact: JIPOE is a dynamic process
The JIPOE process provides the basic data and
assumptions regarding the adversary and other
relevant aspects of the OE that help the JFC and staff identify intelligence requirements,
information requirements, and collection
requirements. What phase of the intelligence
