As with virtually everything tied to the Mukhabarat, its budget is a state secret. Details from leaked partner documents suggest that the Air Force Intelligence Directorate's budget in 2013 was around $4.76 billion, broken down into the following:
- Intelligence collection: $1.52 billion
- Intelligence processing: $0.62 billion
- Data analysis: $0.51 billion
- Research & technology:: $0.27 billion
- Clandestine operations: $0.50 billion
- Support and logistics: $1.44 billion
It is unclear how accurate these figures are, and if this includes foreign currency used for clandestine operations. Furthermore, as the Mukhabarat is suspected to be engaged in counterfeiting and cyber-attacks against enemy financial institutions, its official budget is not necessarily equal to the true amount of money available for its use.
