- This article is about the AFFS agency. For The Republic of the Sphere agency, see The Republic of the Sphere.
The AFFS' main intelligence agency, the DMI is responsible for gathering knowledge about enemies and potential enemies of the Federated Suns any way possible and, as a secondary duty, defeat or confuse enemy intelligence operations via sabotage, misinformation, or other means.
The DMI consists of seven divisions in 3025:
- MI1: Command
- The CO is always a Field Marshal. As the head of the organization, this department is responsible for training and C3 duties. The High Command delegates its orders through M1. To prevent the abuse of such powers all actions must be confirmed by three officers with the rank of General or higher. Only the First Prince, his military aide or the High Command can decide to take action against the Davion-Clan.[1]
- MI2: Analysis and Speculation
- All information gathered from electronic or field operatives are collected, categorized and analyzed to see the big picture. Teams from this department provide March and field commands with crucial information, as well as insuring relevant data is sent to the Fox's Den. This provides the High Command with an accurate overview of ongoing campaigns.[2]
- MI3: Electronic Information Gathering
- Agents of MI3 watch the enemies of the AFFS very close with all electronic measure available. To their inventory includes listening pots, salteite, spezialized jumpships and so on. All 'conventional' HPG communication and through the black boxes are secured, to.[3]
- MI4: Covert Operations Division (the "Stealthy Foxes")
- MI5: Counter-Insurgency
- MI6: Special Forces (the "Rabid Foxes", equivalent to LIC's Loki or the ISF's DEST teams)
- MI7: MIIO Liaison - As the activities of the Ministry of Information, Intelligence, and Operations and DMI frequently overlap, members of this division work to prevent duplication of effort or one agency's operation interfering with another.
The separation of intelligence gathering efforts into a military focused organization (DMI) and a civilian-led organization (MIIO) allows the DMI to focus primarily on military related matters, while the MIIO considers nearly everything else. In addition, the fact that there are two "competing" agencies producing the same product insures that the AFFS High Command gets relevant and accurate data.
