capabilities for counter-mine warfare will be improved. Inform/Situational awareness • Capabilities of Intelligence Analysis processing and fusion and distribution of products will be maintained and concentrated at the joint consolidated level, supporting all levels of decision making by adequate products; • In the Security and Intelligence part of the Information area, the Joint Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (JISR) capabilities will develop as a multiplier of the operational performances of the Armed Forces, which will assume the entire (primary) area of defense interest of the Republic of Croatia, the area of deployment of Croatian contingents (secondary area of interest), and support to Collective Defense of NATO and EU and multi-national operations out of the territory of the Alliance member states; • The Republic of Croatia will continuously raise the quality and the scope of intelligence products for development of harmonized and aligned NATO Intelligence products in support of NATO Intelligence Warning System. • Development of capabilities in basic disciplines will continue: Signal Intelligence (SIGINT); Human Intelligence (HUMINT); Open Source Intelligence (OSINT); • Basic discipline of Imagery Intelligence (IMINT) will be rebuilt and developed; • Biometric capabilities of the Armed Forces that support NATO led operations will be continually developed; • Development of capability for utilization and processing Geo-spatial information and its pairing with the products of other technical information disciplines will be completed. A part of these capabilities will use and exploit the information from the specialized NATO Network System and the products of European Union Satellite Center whose member is the Republic of Croatia; • Capabilities of Air Surveillance will be maintained and improved by integration of active and passive, military and civil Sensor Systems with the purpose of making high quality recognized picture of the airspace situation; • The Croatian Navy Sensor System will be enhanced and a unique network for maritime situation data collecting on the Adriatic sea will be established; • Capabilities of data collecting, processing, and distributing in support of the naval counter-mine activities; • A unique information network will be built, linking military and civil Sensor Systems and users of information in the area of maritime security at the Adriatic sea. Insufficient or non affordable sensor capabilities of the Croatian Navy will be compensated by using Joint capabilities of technical disciplines of data collecting and processing by the Joint Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (JISR) capabilities; • Professional competencies of the members of the Armed Forces will be improved and refreshed periodically. Own resources of training and education should be used in enhancing and maintaining insufficient capabilities, and in the areas where the adequate resources are non-existent or not affordable, the Security and Intelligence system will rely upon the relevant NATO capacities, European Union Satellite Center, and NATO and/or EU member states. 21
