Notes & Sources

  • Z8 (Technical ELINT Collection and Analysis) is an Army Additional Skill Identifier (proponent: Office of the Assistance Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics), not a standalone military occupation.
  • Authority scope: "Identifies positions requiring Soldiers qualified to perform technical electronic collection and analysis." Award requirement: "Must have successfully completed course SIGE3810 Intermediate ELINT Collection and Analysis." Restrictions: "For use with MOS 35S (skill level 2-3) only." The identifier alone does not establish a civilian occupation; occupation-specific skills and career guidance depend on the holder's primary MOS and actual duties.
