The Air Force’s intelligence structure makeover (see above) also includes shifting the Air Force Intelligence Agency and its subordinate units from Air Combat Command to the newly expanded A2. It will work directly for Lt. Gen. David Deptula, whose title changes from intelligence to intelligence-surveillance-reconnaissance deputy chief of staff. The agency also will change its name to Air Force ISR Command, effective March 1.
