FAISS	Forces Command Automated Intelligence Support System. The AN/UYK‑71A, FAISS, is a corps and division Disk Operating System (DOS) compatible processing and dissemination system. The system was one of the first desktop computers fielded to corps through ACR TCAEs in the continental United States (CONUS). The system allows analysts to import, export, and manage SIGINT, topographic, collateral, and national systems databases and messages. Any database records, such as unit position or topographic indicators, can be plotted on maps displayed on the system's video monitors. The FAISS will be retained in some units to provide a minimum automation capability until ASAS is fully fielded
