FROM: Director of Central Intelligence
25X1 SUBJECT: Backfire 0
In my testimony before the House Armed Services Committee, we
were asked some questions about new configurations of the Backfire.
A clear implication of the questioner was that this new evidence
was likely to extend the range of the Backfire. You indicated a
general agreement that this was quite likely. What is this all
25X1 about?
