This Air Force Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (AFTTP) describes the activities the Air Force
Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) employs in support of AFPD 31-1, Integrated Defense.
AFOSI conducts investigations, operations, and counterintelligence (CI) collection activities to
find, fix, track, and neutralize adversary threats to enable Department of the Air Force operations.
This AFTTP describes command and organizational relationships, execution using functional
capabilities, and training requirements to conduct effective CI support to force protection (CISFP).
While these TTP principles are focused on expeditionary operations in high threat locations, the
tactical doctrine principles remain the same for home-station operations. This AFTTP applies to
civilian employees and uniformed members of the Department of the Air Force, the Air Force
Reserve, and the Air National Guard. The doctrine prescribed in this document is authoritative,
but not directive. Ensure that all records created as a result of processes prescribed in this
publication are maintained in accordance with Air Force Instruction (AFI) 33-322, Records
Management and Information Governance Program, and are disposed of in accordance with the
Air Force Records Disposition Schedule, which is located in the Air Force Records Information
Management System. Refer recommended changes and questions about this publication to the
Office of Primary Responsibility using the AF Form 847, Recommendation for Change of
Publication; route AF Forms 847 from the field through the appropriate career field functional
manager’s chain of command. This publication may be supplemented at any level, but all
Supplements must be routed to the OPR of this publication for coordination prior to certification
and approval.
