MEMORANDUM FOR: Comptroller, OSA
SUBJECT Funding Request for the Concept Evaluation
Phase of an Advanced Aerodynamics Reconnaissance
System under the FY-69 General Research and
Development (Aircraft) Budget
REFERENCE (a)
FY-1969 Budget
Issue No. 9, Advanced Aircraft
1. This memorandum is a request for authorization for
the expenditure, of to pursue the Concept Evaluation
Phase of an Advanced Aerodynamic Reconnaissance System. This
is a new FY-69 effort and is appropriate to the General
Research and Development (Aircraft) program.
2. The program, as discussed in detail in Attachmert I.
is to explore various methods of achieving a survivable
quick reaction reconnaissance capability (manned or unmarned).
The primary objective would be to survive in the lethal
envelopes of projected Sovbloc and other defensive environ-
ments through the 1975 - 1980 period. In evaluation of an
approach to this program, attention is directed to refercnce
(a) wherein it is pointed out that the decision to phase-out
the OXCART vehicle and the decision to discontinue work cn
the ISINGLASS concept represented a trend away from continuing
maintenance of a high-performance covert manned overflight
capability in the NRP. Reference (a) further notes that the
cost and effectiveness of alternative vehicle concepts must
be examined; for example, should the vehicle be manned or
unmanned and in each case what type of launch operation,
propulsion, recovery, etc. offers the most promise. These
questions are addressed in the elements of the task.
