Army reservists and RAF regulars have been taking part in intelligence training together for the first time.​  

RAF officers and junior officers from 2 of the army’s reservist military intelligence battalions came together for a week of exciting and mentally-challenging intelligence training.

The training helped to give RAF officers completing the joint air intelligence course (JAIC) insight into the army’s operating environment, and also formed part of the junior army officers’ training as Intelligence Corps officers.

During the week, the students prepared briefing material for a commander seeking to expel a fictional Musorian force from the Island of Colchis.

Through researching the opposing force’s doctrine, and studying ground, the trainees were able to assess the enemy’s likely plan. They were then taught how to develop this understanding into a detailed assessment of the enemy’s courses of action.
