Capstone Threat Assessments (CTAs)
Bedrock analytical foundation for threat intelligence support to the defense acquisition process
Cover major warfare areas:
- Air Warfare
- Chemical, Biological, and Radiological Defense
- Information Operations
- Land Warfare
- Missile Defense
- Naval Warfare
- Space Warfare
primary source of threat intelligence for the preparation of VOLT and System Threat Assessment (STA)
Validated Online Life Cycle Threat (VOLT)
Produced by DIA
Report, prepared by the appropriate Service, to support Acquisition Category (ACAT) ID/ Major Defense Acquisition Programs (MDAPs)
In place at the MDD and revalidated/updated at subsequent milestones up to FRP/FD
Should address projected adversary capabilities at system initial operating capability (IOC) and at IOC plus 10 years.
Critical Intelligence Parameters (CIPs)
CIPs are those key performance thresholds of foreign threat systems, which, if exceeded, could compromise the mission effectiveness of the U.S. system in development
If a CIP is breached, the responsible intelligence production center will notify the program office and DIA/DWO in accordance with DIA Instruction 5000.002.
