MEMORANDUM FOR: Director, National Reconnaissance Office
SUBJECT:
Office of Special Projects/CIA Funding Require-
ments for Applied Research/Advanced Tech-
nology and Vulnerability Analysis
1. Pu cuant to the Executive Committee discussions of
23 November 1965, Attachments A through C to this memorandum
present the Fiscal Year 1966 and 1967 OSP/CIA funding requirements
for Applied Research/Advanced Technology and Vulnerability Analysis.
2. Attachment A deals with Vulnerability Analysis to be conducted
in support of the hardware development program conducted by SAFSP.
Attachment B presents a detailed program plan for Advanced Research
and Advanced Technology applications for the remainder of Fiscal Year
1966. Each of these projects has been laid out in detail and in most
cases OSP is in receipt of informal or formal proposals from industry
for the work presented. Many of these projects are follow-on to efforts
conducted in Fiscal Year 1965, however, no funds have been available
for the first half of Fiscal Year 1966 so at the current time no work is
in progress. Attachment C presents an outline of the Fiscal Year 1967
Applied Research and Advanced Technology program. This work is
not currently planned to the same level of detail as the Fiscal Year 1966
program, but specific objectives have been set and budgetary cost 50X1
estimates made. The total Fiscal Year 1966 funding requirement is
while the Fiscal Year 1967 is We are 50X1
particularly anxious to proceed with the Fiscal Year 1966 plan and we
would be most happy to provide you with any additional information you
may require.

VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS
Fiscal Year 1966 -
Fiscal Year 1967 -
ATTACHMENT A
OSP is currently discussing with SAFSP-6 the terms of
reference for meaningful OSP participation in the Vulnerability
Program. OSP proposes to provide an analytical model of the
Soviet anti-satellite system and use this model to evaluate the
effectiveness of existing and proposed vulnerability reduction
measures. To do this, CIA will draw on the extensive effort
expended by other Agency components in fulfilling their intel-
ligence analysis mission. OSP will supplement this effort to the
extent required to provide the specific expertise needed to formu-
late the defense system model in the terms most applicable to
the problem at hand. In addition, OSP will make recommendations
concerning additional intelligence collection efforts that may be
required to support the Vulnerability Analysis and participate in
the formulation of operating techniques and tactics.
