History
In 1985, the Army split the generalized Electronic Warfare/Intercept Systems Technician 33S MOS into five specializations 33P, 33Q, 33R, 33V, and 33T ].However, on 1 October 1998 the Army recombined the three MOSs: 33R, 33T, 33Y into one MOS—33W. This change was prompted due to lack of need in several of the 33 series. By combining all three into one MOS, the Army was able to provide the same support with fewer soldiers and use OJT.
On 1 October 2007, the 33W designation was renamed to 35T to group all Military Intelligence MOSs in the same 35 series.
Training
35Ts are trained to perform maintenance tasks associated with electronic warfare equipment and systems. The soldiers are taught about electricity and advanced electronic theory, advanced concept and troubleshooting theory to include basic and advanced computer concepts and advanced troubleshooting skills using the Army's most advanced EW systems. Also taught are the concepts of basic analog and digital electronics repair, communications theory ; Imagery Analysis systems, signal intelligence systems and, aerial electronic warfare systems, or provide System Administration over complex/advanced computer systems and networks.Charlie Company, 309th Military Intelligence Battalion, 111th Military Intelligence Brigade at Fort Huachuca, AZ conducts all 35T training. Charlie Company is composed of only 35T's as of 2018 due to over inhabitance of Alpha 305th's IET population.
