RAF Intelligence Officer

I have just finished my A-levels and am hoping to join the RAF as an Intelligence Officer.
Apart from teaching myself Russian, which I am currently part way through a course, would anyone recommend any other qualifications or skills to acquire?

No, as advised elsewhere, you don't need anything for IntO.

Work on the things that will help your application for officer; evidence of your leadership and manage potential.

As far as I'm aware I'm the only ex-IntO on here

Ex-RAF Recruiter here, and Drewski has told you twice what is needed; basically, the requirements listed on the RAF Recruitment website and demonstration of leadership potential. Why would you think you need more than that, in terms of qualifications and opinions? And the first point of call for more info is always the official source - the website and your AFCO.
