On December 7, I went to LTV to observe the pro- gress of the modificatipn of the SP-211 Multisensor System and finish off the test schedule with Dave Lane and Chuck Michelsen. 2. I brought back a somewhat optimistic project test schedule of what LTV plans to do on CHIGOE from now until the end of January. The schedule has already slipped a week since I was down at LTV. The reason for the slippage is Litton's inability to solve a voltage sensitivity pro- blem in their LN-15 inertial platform. Without the LN-15 no integrated navigation flight tests can be performed. 3. I discussed with Cliff Slagle the addition of a data annotation block on the D-5 camera. The only camera that now has a data block on the film is the KA-53 which is primarily a day time camera. Seeing that many of our missions will be at night, I believe it will be advanta- geous to have a data block on the D-5 or D-10 if we use it. 4. The main problems confronting CHIGOE at this time are the LN-15 and the unresolved problem of Dalmo-Victor's LLLTV. 0/ORD/DD/S&T GROUP 1 Excluded from automatic doriagraffIg 21d demlassifivtin Approved for Release: 2020/12/28 C05752603
