B. CAPABILITIES:
(1) THE ESS/SES EXPLOITS DIGITAL IMAGERY IN NEAR REAL
TIME (NRT). IT IS USED TO SUPPORT ALL IMAGERY OPERATIONAL AREAS,
INTELLIGENCE DEVELOPMENT FOR INDICATIONS AND WARNING, SITUATION
ASSESSMENT, ORDER OF BATTLE, TARGETING, AND TACTICAL OPERATIONS.
(2) THE MIES IS A RESPONSIVE TACTICAL SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES THE
CAPABILITY TO RECEIVE AND PROCESS PRIMARY NATIONAL AND THEATER
IMAGERY FROM ITS NATIONAL INPUT SEGMENT (BOIP M090AB) OR A CO-LOCATED
TACTICAL RADAR CORRELATOR (TRAC) TO PRODUCE IMAGERY REPORTS AND
PRODUCTS TAILORED TO THE GROUND COMMANDER'S PRIORITY REQUIREMENTS.
IT PROVIDES EXPLOITATION MANAGEMENT, REPORTING, SECONDARY IMAGERY
DISSEMINATION, AND LIMITED ARCHIVES OF IMAGERY. THE MIES IS USED TO
SUPPORT ALL IMAGERY OPERATIONAL AREAS, INTELLIGENCE DEVELOPMENT FOR
INDICATIONS AND WARNING, SITUATION ASSESSMENT, ORDER OF BATTLE,
TARGETING, AND TACTICAL OPERATIONS. THE MIES IS ALSO A PREPROCESSOR
FOR THE ALL SOURCE ANALYSIS SYSTEM (ASAS).
C. EMPLOYMENT: THE ESS/SES IS PART OF THE MIES WHICH IS ORGANIC
TO THE OPERATIONS BATTALION (BN) OF THE CORPS MILITARY INTELLIGENCE
(MI) BRIGADE (BDE) AND THE STRATEGIC IMAGERY ANALYSIS (IA) COMPANY OF
THE ECHELON ABOVE CORPS (EAC) MI BDE.
D. BASIS OF ISSUE: ONE SYSTEM PER CORPS MI BDE OPERATIONS BN AND
ONE PER STRATEGIC IA COMPANY OF THE EAC MI BDE. MIES HAS ALREADY BEEN
DOCUMENTED AS A BASE ITEM IN SRC 34649A000.
