Detachment 1 of the 43rd Intelligence Squadron provides dedicated, real-time threat warning and enhanced situational awareness onboard Air Force Special Operations Command aircraft. The unit's Career Enlisted Aviators, known as Direct Support Operators, qualify on any AFSOC aircraft for training, exercises, and real-world contingencies; they exploit information to keep the rest of the aircrews inside the enemy decision loop by providing specialized intelligence and a robust information operations capability. Support personnel assigned to the unit perform the "behind the scenes" work required to enable the DSOs to provide their outstanding support.
