I am looking into switching to Air Force after my 20 years in the army, which is April 2020. My current MOS in the army is 25B: Information Systems Operator-Analyst. What is the equivalent Air Force Specialty Codes (AFSC) for 25B?
I have 3.5 years of 25B2O experience, and have attended Primary Leadership Development Course (now called BLC). I have CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, CCENT (ICND1), and MCSA Server 2012 certification.
What are the procedure in switching Armed Forces Branch?
What do I need to do to prepare for the school or courses I will be sent to?

The Air Force wouldn't take me with an early release from the Army. Not gonna take you with major grade reductions.

I’m not 100% but I know it will start with a 3.

There's nothing that's directly comparable.

1B4 is a network operator. Defensive and offensive operations, but it's not a first time position. It requires Airmen to cross train into it so I'm not sure how that would work for you.

1N4A is a Network Analyst. They do a wide range of stuff from Malware analysis to network traffic analysis.

However if you already have 20 years in the army my guess is that you'd be put into a middle management position and not a hands on keyboard person.
