1. The ability of the USSR to wage offensive war is a primary
factor which determines the preparations the United States must make
for both defensive and offensive action. The United States lacks
precise knowledge of the major economic, military, and political
activities of the USSR. This lack of knowledge creates an atmosphere
of uncertainty, provides an unsound basis for determining the National
Defense program, and may lead to a state of economic and psychological
tension which is unacceptable. Thus, the overwhelming need of the
United States is that of securing reliable and conclusive evidence of
the ability of the USSR to conduct war. This knowledge is a prerequisite
to fulfilling our responsibility of maintaining the peace.
2. Aerial photography is recognized as being the most powerful
single tool for gaining accurate information of the USSR. The Air
Force is concerned with the problem of aerial photography as a portion
of the reconnaissance mission. However, such a program utilizing
current accepted aircraft is excessively dangerous due to the proba-
bility of detection and possible destruction. It also is unwise for
one of the military arms to engage directly in extensive overflight
of the USSR.
3. Relatively safe overflights are now feasible. An aircraft
has been developed with the capability of operating at an altitude
such that, if detected, it can avoid destruction by current Russian
defenses. Thus vehicles to fulfill the need are available. We
believe these planes can safely conduct aerial photography and that
no amount of indirect or fragmentary intelligence can equal the
positive information afforded by such a program. The opportunity
for safe overflight may be anticipated for only a few years as the
Russians will develop defenses to counteract temporary aircraft
superiority. For these reasons we are vigorously pursuing a program
designed to secure intelligence information by aerial photography of
the USSR. TAB ?An
4. Our mission is to conduct extensive overflights of the
Soviet Bloc in order to provide photographic and secondarily elec-
tronic intelligence; our tasks are to organize, equip, train and
deploy overseas, units capable of performing our mission.
5. General direction and control of the project organized to
perform our mission shall be exercised jointly by the Director of
Central Intelligence and the Chief of Staff USAF. The project Head-
quarters is headed by a CIA Project Director, an Air Force officer
serves as Deputy Director. This Headquarters will be responsible for
continued research and development, operational planning, and the
direction and control of operations.

3. The USAF will supply general support to this operation.
Housekeeping support functions will be performed by personnel of the
permanent USAF bases. Airlift support will be provided by special
USAF units.
4. The first unit will be considered combat equipped and ready
when six trained pilots and three aircraft are available for overflight
operations. Overflight operations will begin at this point.
5. Initial operations will be launched from bases within easy
reach of the heavily populated areas of Western Russia and her Western
Satellites.
6. Initial operations will begin with "feeler type" missions.
Sortie rates and penetration will build up gradually. Maximum monthly
sortie rates will be 8 per aircraft and 4 per pilot.

9. Priority considered, flight routes will be planned in areas
where sun angle and weather will permit the greatest amount of photo-
graphic coverage. Route weather will be one of the major factors in
flight planning.
10. For the purpose of determining equipment and personnel.
requirements a sustained operation is assumed. For the purpose of
mission planning and priority establishment the possibility of having
to cease operation at any time is assumed.
Activities under this project fall into three phases. First
are the activities dealing with research and development, procurement,
the construction and activation of a test and training base, the test-
ing of equipment, and operational planning. These activities are
well along. The second phase will be devoted to training and deploy-
ment overseas. The third phase is that of active operations from
overseas bases.
In April 1956 the first operationally ready unit will be
deployed to a base in to begin clandestine overflights of the
USSR. It is probable that this first unit will also launch missions
from forward staging bases.
The second unit will become operationally ready July 1956
and will possibly be deployed to
The third unit to become operationally ready will be
based in Europe or will be used to supplement the units in place in
25X1D0b
In order to reach all points within the USSR, flights must
be staged in and out of bases in These 25X6C
staging missions are not planned for the first months of the over-
flight operation. Staging missions will require that a maintenance
and communications capability be moved to the pre or post-strike
staging area. This will require in addition to the necessary arrange-
ments with local governments, a considerable amount of support from
the USAF in the form of airlift. The USAF will organize units to
support each of our operational units. These units will provide
logistics support at the home base as well as airlift during staging
operations.
Control of our operations will be maintained by Central
Project Headquarters in Washington. This will require: that the
Field Unit Commanders be given limited authority to plaL and launch
overflights. A considerable degree of control will have to be main-
tained, however, in cases where flights from one unit may conflict
with those of another and when base facilities of another unit are
required for staging.

Phase 1
Certain activities or Phase One will exist concurrently
with those of Phases Two and Three. Modification and development
of equipment will continue indefinitely as experience gained through
active operations defines the need for modification. In addition,
electronic systems 2 and 4,
package will not be completed by the time the first detachments are
deployed overseas and are in active operations. For these reasons
Phase One will be considered completed for individual items on the
date they have been developed, tested, proved equal or superior to
specifications and delivered to personnel of the project. This is
defined as the operationally available date. Operational planning
will also continue through Phases Two and Three. For the purpose
of this study operational planning consists of two parts. First of
these is planning concerned with organizing and equipping units so
that they are capable of accomplishing their mission after receiving
adequate training and direction. The target date for completion of
this for each detachment is established as the date each detachment
enters into training. The second part is planning concerned with
training and utilization of these units. The target date for this
is also established as the date of entry of individual detachments
into training status. The unit will be considered operationally
ready and training completed when the unit has performed successful
missions in protracted operations under simulated overseas conditions.

ANNEX 2
AMMINISTRATION
AssuMptions
1. Because of the sensitive nature of the Project, administrative
control between Central Project Headquarters in Washington and units in
the field will, exist in a direct line, without reference to any command
lines now in being between Washington and any other operations now in
the field under the same sponsorship.
2. Local administrative control of detachments in the field will
be vested in a senior Administrative Officer with each detachment,
responsible for supervision of all maintenance and support activities
under the command of the letachment Commander. In order to simplify
local administration of each detachment, the senior Administrative Officer
will have delegated to him as many administrative authorities as possible,
subject only to the orders of the Detachment Commander and to subsequent
review by Central Project Headquarters.
3. Special arrangements will be made to effect disbursements
covering salary, per diem, and/or allowances to all overseas Detachment
personnel regardless of their parent service or sponsor.
4. Administrative control over staff personnel, contract personnel
and USAF types (less theatre support personnel) will reside in Central
Project Headquarters. Similar control over contractor-supplied personnel
will be provided through close liaison with the affected contractors, and
through the medium of terms of contractor employment contracts previously
negotiated under Central Project Headquarters guidance.
S. Subject to the determinations of the Project Director, ultimate
financial responsibility for the Project lies within the.Administrative
Staff. Systems of proceas and procedures for allocating funds, establishing
Obligations, performing audits, maintaining recordings of All monetary
transactions, and preparation of Financial Status Records on the Project,
will be established within Central Project Headquarters. Each overseas
Detachment will have its own Finance Officer, trained by Central Project
Headquarters. Prior to the activation of a Detachment overseas, a
detailed financial plan, setting forth the mechanics of pining funds,
rendering services, maintaining accountings and making and disposing of
reports will be prepared and made available to the Detachment Finance Officer.

6. Through the Project Contracting Officer, administrative
responsibility for the contracts executed between the sponsor and the
various contractors for the provision of supplies and services, will
reside in the Project Administrative Staff. The Staff will establish
systems necessary to permit prompt and accurate disposition of the
accounts of all contractual transactions initiated at the direction of
responsible Project officials.
7. Although the Project Administrative Staff exercises administra-
tive control over, and responsibility for, Project security, both within
the ZI and overseas at Detachment locations, the Security Plan is set
forth separately in Annex 3.
8. The Central Project Headquarters Administrative Staff will
furnish support policy guidance to Detachments in the field, as required,
under the direction of the Project Director.

Phase 1
1. Phase 1 administrative support will be concerned with the
formulation and revision of a Project Table of Organization, reflecting
operational and support emphasis, and with the acquisition of a Project
Staff as set forth therein. (See Attachment A to Annex 2) The Project
assumes responsibility for the identification, recruitment, selection and
clearance of personnel required to man the Project. These fall into
four primary categories:
25X1Al2a
a. Staff D,.loyees - to be assigned to the Project from the
ranks of avellab e sponsor personnel, or directly from sources
in civilian life. Assignment to the Project is controlled by the
Project Director.
b. Contract Employees - either indigenous or nationals
recruited for their skills and under legal contract to the sponsor
solely for the life of the Project. Normally this category will
comprise pilot personnel.
d. Contractor Personnel - This category consists of civilians recruit-
ed and selected by contractors of the Project, solely for maintenance
and operation of the primary mission aircraft and its components.
Security clearances are handled by sponsor Security elements, and,
subject to approval by the Project Director, selected individuals
may be assigned by the Contractor for duty with the Prqject. They
are not directly employed by the Government, but the Project retains
a review function over contract terms of employment, and may request
the removal of any such employee from association with the Project,
should circumstances require.
2. The Table of Organization is coordinated with the Air Force
so far as structure and specialty content are concerned, and then formally
approved as a sponsor Project T/0 by appropriate sponsor officials. It
may be amended in line with changing operational concepts and requirements.

3. Certain sponsor-furnished personnel will also be detailed to
the Project to handle specific policy, operational or support functions,
without appearing on the Project T/0. This group is so detailed with
the approval of the Project Director.
4. The Project Administrative Staff will also assume primary
responsibility for the erection and maintenance of the Project Training
and Test Site, located within the ZI. Consultative services on
construction and maintenance matters is supplied by the Project Architect,
Engineer; construction and maintenance contracts will be let through
the mechanism of an Apparent co-sponsoring Agency acting as a cut-out both
for letting contracts and effecting payments. Work on the Test Site
willte performed by a civilian contractor unwitting of sponsoring interest.
5. Administrative responsibility at the Test and Training Site
resides in the Deputy Base Commander, a civilian staff employee supplied
by Central Project Headquarters. He reports to, and is under the guidance
of, a senior USAF officer, assigned as Base Commander at the Training
and Test Site. This officer is responsible only to the Project Director.
6. During Phase 1, the Project Contracting Officer, under the
direction of the Project Director, will contract with certain civilian
industrial suppliers, for the production of the primary mission aircraft
and such components as are deemed necessary to its successful operation.
Records of such contracts will be maintained in the Administrative Staff,
Central Project Headquarters, and payment plans will be executed and
administered from the same locale.

Phase 2
1. Phase 2 is concerned with training and deployment of Detachment
personnel for overseas duty, and will overlap with Phase 3. the responsi-
bility for the training phase rests with a special component of the USAF,
which will detail a mission to the Training and Test Site, under a senior
USAF officer, especially for this purpose. This mission will be charged
with the responsibility for determining combat-readiness of each overseas
Detachment.
2. During Phase 2, Central Project Headquarters will determine
what physical support facilities are required at each overseas operating
base, and will levy a reqpirement on USAF through USAF Project Headquarters
to provide such facilities, including new construction particular to this
Project. Such advice and guidance SA may be required on special Project
construction requirements will come from the Project Director through the
Administrative Staff to USAF Project Headquarters. .
3. Maintenance and Support elements of overseas Detachments
will be asseMbled? so far as is possible, at Central Project Headquarters
for training and indoctrination, and will proceed to the Training and
Test Site for actual field experience in their respective, jobs. Contractor-
furnished elements of the Maintenance and Support Section of each overseas
Detachment will proceed to the Training and Test Site without indoctrination
at Central Project Headquarters*
4. The Project Administrative Staff will assume responsibility for
the physical preparation for overseas duty of all personnel assigned to
the Project. Immunization, documentation, passports, visas and payment
plans will be worked out either through sponsor's facilities, or, in the
case of Civilian contractor employees, through their company headquarters
under Project direction. Pilot personnel, either indigenous or U.S. national
will be procesaed for overseas through sponsor facilities in Central Project
Headquarters.
5. Maintenance and support elements of each overseas Detachment,
under command of the Detachment Administrative Support officer, will be
deployed approximately 30 days in advance of the commencement of
hment operations.
