What is the mission set for A2/6C?

• A. Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance/Cyberspace Operations and Warfighter Communications
• B. Manpower, Personnel, and Services
• C. Logistics, Engineering, and Force Protection Directorate
• D. Communications

Answer: (A)

A2/6C combines intelligence and cyber/communications functions. The A2 designation is focused on Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance, while the 6 relates to Communications and Cyberspace. The added “C” signals Cyberspace Operations. So the mission set for this combination is ISR plus Cyberspace Operations and Warfighter Communications, reflecting an integrated approach to gathering and analyzing intelligence while also protecting and enabling cyber and communications capabilities for the warfighter.

Other options point to areas like manpower and services, or logistics and force protection, or simply communications. Those do not capture the ISR component or the cyber/warfighter communications integration this team is responsible for.
