The 70th Intelligence Support Squadron (ISS) is a United States Air Force unit stationed at Hurlburt Field, Florida. It provides tactical and operational intelligence support to U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), and other Special Operations Forces (SOF) around the globe.The primary mission of the 70th ISS is to collect, analyze, and disseminate intelligence on foreign military forces, political developments, and geographic information. This data is used to inform operational decision-making and enhance the overall effectiveness of SOF missions. The squadron also provides specialized training in intelligence analysis, targeting, and operational planning.The 70th ISS operates under Air Combat Command (ACC) but falls under the operational control of SOCOM’s Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (ISR) Directorate. This unique arrangement allows the squadron to seamlessly integrate with SOF commands during both peacetime and wartime operations.The squadron was established in 1956, making it one of the oldest intelligence units within the U.S. Air Force. Over the years, its role has evolved to meet changing global threats and operational requirements. Today, the 70th ISS continues to play a critical role in supporting U.S. Special Operations Forces and maintaining national security.
