Downloaded from https://www.everyspec.com FM 34-54 Corps TECHINT teams, and possibly JCMEC teams, will prepare a COMTECHREP on all CEM that the JCMEC tells it to do. If the TECHINT collection team is out of contact with the JCMEC, it will follow the TECHINT collection plan and use its best judgment on reporting. This report is first transmitted normally by secure computer data transmission over landline to the Corps TECHINT LNE from the team's base. If possible, it is transmitted from the CEE site over secure computer or radio data transmission via satellite. It is then transmitted to the JCMEC. The report normally will be treated as classified during this transmission.
All electronic images of the CEE and computer scanning of critical CED will be transmitted with the COMTECHREP. If data transmission is not on hand, the report will be transmitted by the nearest message center at no less than PRIORITY precedence. The COMTECHREP - Type A is provided to Air Force TECHINT personnel. Air Force teams usually are not on the scene of captured or downed enemy aircraft before destruction, recapture, or loss. Army TECHINT personnel usually are the first elements on the scene and will examine the CEM and submit a COMTECHREP - Type A. This report often constitutes the only information that can be provided to Air Force TECHINT.
If naval CEM is acquired, the Type A report format can be modified for reporting such acquisition. Figure E-3 shows an example of a COMTECHREP - Type A. (Classification) COMTECHREP - TYPE A The COMTECHREP - Type A is used to report information about aircraft. The JCMEC normally will require this report to be done right after the PRETECHREP on the aircraft. A.
