In the formulation of this plan the adoption initially of some limited forth of inspection for test purposes has been considered. The British have made a concrete proposal in this regard. 'Another proposal much more restricted in its aspects has been under study by Ameri- can elements. While such,a test would be valuable in that it would afford a dress rehearsal of a. crass-section of a possible final type system, it has the following obvious inherent dis- advantages: a. The basic purpose of the system (i.e. warning of surprise attack) could not be accomplished, and b. Cooperation by'USSP during the test would.not necess- arily assure cooperation during a later full implementation of the system. Further, it would delay for a considerable period, possibly for several years, the installation of a fully.desirable system. All the benefits to be derived from such a test inspection could be achieved better. during the initial stage of a fully implemented system. Furtheri.iore, under these circumstances, -5- TOP SECRET Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRrafi procedural defects could be determined more readily and timely on-the-spot corrective action facilitated. 8. Participation of Other Powers. It is difficult. to conceive that any inspection system could be ' imi ted to the U. S. and USSR even in the beginning. Many J. S. bases are on foreign soil. The USSR could neither be `expected to exclude these bases of potential surprise attack, neither could the U. S. agree to inspection of such bass without consulting the countries in which they ar il-. locat ;d.. Li?.ce. the USSR could not be expect- ed to excluder the arena ents and forces of other Western Pow c.- especially the major powers. While the U. S. and USSR conceivably might be the principals in an original inspection agreement, any subsequent agreements to be fully effective, would have to be i_ntern^tional in scope, involving as a minimum, the Western States on the one side, and Soviet, satellite countries on the othe.;r. Acco dingly, this plan assumes that Western Power countries and the USSR satellite countries will participate in the inspection system from its inception. If,,, .for Any reason, participation in the system is i_Zi+,_f_allr limited to the U. S. and the USSR, the plan described heroin could be placed into effect with minor modifications.. However, any such limited system would betot,lly incapable of assuring early warning against a surprise attack which could be mounted or. supported - b- T OP SECRET.

Reciprocal Provisions of the System. It is important to bear in mind that the provisions of any armaments convention and inspection system ensuing therefrom are to be reciprocal in all aspects. This applies to such things as internal organi- zation of the, system, number and locations of on-the-spot ob- servers, stages of disclosure and verification, and the rights, powers and privileges of the inspection organization and its personnel. For example, if the U. S'. plan provides for six intermediate (area) heaaquart::rs within USSR, we should expect the Russians to insist on a like number of the same type head- quarters in the U. S. If insistence is placed upon the inclu- sion of the a vinments and armed forces of the Russian satellite states, then in the most litor^1 manner must we expect that the Russians will insist that the system;.4 cover our allied countries. It is of primary i portanc ., t'.herefore, in nego- tiating any agreement for an, inspection system,that constant consideration be given to the impact of reciprocal arrangements upon the American people and the kncrican milit xy establishment. IV. CONCEPT - JOINT INSPECTION O GANIZATION 10. Czezneral. The over-all inspection organization should be joint and incorporate the requirements of all its component elements. There follows an oiitline of such an organization -7- TOx' SE'FYI., Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 which insures accomplishment of the inspection mission at mini- murcr cost in personnel, time, and funds, and should be accept- able on a reciprocal basis as "betw ;en the U. S. (', ostorn Powers) and the USSR? (Soviet satellites). 11. Basic -Principles of the Organization. The concept of the Joint Inspection Organization is based on the following principles. a. An inspection organization including integrated military ground, sea and air, as well as specialized civilian elements is necessary. b. The over-all inspection system should b a single com- posite organization, insofar as its incorporated missions permit, and consist jointly of U. S. and other signatory Western Powers personnel, both uniformed and civilian. c. The personnel of the various headquarters, and inspect- ion and observer teams of the inspection s;;st %M should be pre- dominately American because of the high stake: of the U. S. in the undertaking,. d. All Echelons and units of the inspection organization, both within thl IT. S. and USSR and its s ~.~ lli es should be staffed and operated on a joint basis with appropriate, and pro- portionate representation from military and specialized civilian elements. c;. The inspection organization should be controlled central- ly with over-all direction exercised by the U.S. from Washington.

A communications system which will insure full and free exchange of information among the field elements and with all higher headquarters and home countries should be established. g. Logistical-support of the inspection organization and its personnel should be provided on a national basis insofar as practicable. Support of the American element should be by a designated armed. service on a reimburseable basis. 12. The Organization to Support the Objective. (See Appendix B, Inciosure 1, Chart - "U. S..(Western Powers) Inspection System)." a. The inspection organization schematically charted in the above-mentioned annex is in line with the principles stated in paragraph 6, above.. Detailed organizations of the various headquarters and teams along with a statement, of major functions are listed as follows: Appendix B, Appendix B, Appendix B, Appendix 13, Appendix B, Appendix B, Appendix 3, Appendix C Incl. 2 .

(See Appendix D, for Station Lists of Joint and Army Headquarters). c. It is emphasized that the above-described organization, including on-the-spot observers, must be in place and ready to function.on the date agreed upon for commencement of the inspect- ion system. 13. Extent of Disclosure and Verif ication: a. The system of disclosure and verification must be on a continuing basis. Disclosure as of a particular date on a "one- time basis" and subsequent verification of such disclosure would not meet the requirements and hence would require a continuing program. Therefore, it is contemplated that the machinery which will be set up should be permanent, or at least on a long terra basis, since the disclosure and verification of armed forces and armaments will be on a continuing basis. b. The disclosure, verification and on-the-spot surveillance must cover all armed forces and armament of every kind including para-:military, security and police forces, and all armaments in- eluding nuclear. It is.obvious that disclosure of such informa- tion to a foreign power is contrary to U. S. laws and no doubt the same fact applies to Russia ara(. other foreign powers.

SECEM necessary legal approval would present fewer obstructions to the authoritarian Communist Governient. Other parliamentary systems may be confronted with problems approaching those of the U. S. in difficulty. 14. Stages of Disclosure and Verification. a. Disclosure and verification must be carried out step by step with appropriate provisions for proceeding to the next step when and only when Tp ovi..ous steps have been completed satisfact- orily by the signatory nations. A definite time limit should be established for the completion of each stage. b. Appendix E, sets forth in outline the extent of forces and armaments to be disclosed 'in the respective: stages and the mariner of verification of the information required to be disclosed. c. In considering the appropriate number of stags, the fig- ure five was determined to represent the minimum number consistent with the following conside.'ati ons : (1) Disclosure and verification should proceed from the less secret areas in the earl;; stages to the More secret areas. (2) A phasing of this nature, in addition to furnishing the best test of the good faith of all states, would cause the minimum degree of interference in the internal life of each country. d. It is contemplated that the disclosure and verification processes with respect to all adhering states should begin si_mul- ta_neously, go forward at approximately the same tempo, and be con- cluded with the utmost dispatch.

In add tion, these teams should be permitted by the signatory nation and requirod by the in- specting nation to inspect areas which, by virtue of aerial reconnaissance, are suspected of including installations either undisclosed in the military blueprint or of such size as to indicate inaccuracy or inadequacy in disclosed infor- mation.

Inspection teams, in some instances, may. require a greater number of personnel than initially envisaged for verification teams since the continuous surveillance which will be found necessary in so:pie situations (radar watch on major Sorts and air stations) will require a 2'; hour watch with consequent increase in personnel. :}Anther, if we do set up our own radar stations for continuous observation we may decide to provide our own power supply (mobile generators) where feasible, so as to guard against the possibility of the Soviets cutting off the supply at critical moments. Facil- ities of this soA will require additional operators and repairman. 68 TOP S: ;C1uT 9 0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 T010 S ) .A & "T On the other hand, the eventual size, personnel qualifications, and p)ositionin of inspection teams will depend upon the information disclosed and verified during the verification phase. or should? we lose sight of the possibility that some activities may be combined or some teams might be dissolved, and a few specialized personnel placed with an flrr r team. To the extent this may be fea- sible, there can be a corresponding reduction in the ini- tially estimated number of personnel. ,/e may find that a team can cover a greater or lesser area or scope of activ- ity than herein assumed; and the number of personnel may vary in relation to the type and amount of electronic observing equipment that can be utilized within the USSR. or e:ca;rple, we have stationed a single teal: at .Turinansk to cover naval activities in several locations.

As stated above, when inspection is. required at secondary installations to which no resident inspection team is assigned, a ten.porary mobile team can be made up of members of one of the resident inspection teams. If it is eventually decided, however, to place U.S. inspection ,personnel on a continuous basis at the various US)"-"R naval air stations and seaplane bases, it may be necessary to arrange additional messin , berthing and transportation services to su?pott these inspection units.

COMMENTS ON EXPENSE, PERSONNEL POLICIES, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS 1. COSTING OUT. The cost estimates of the personnel and material require- ments for the verification and inspection teams of the Navy portion of the inspection and reporting system are calculated on the basis of the verification phase lasting three months, after which the inspection teams will take over. The cost of the inspection teams is calculated for a twelve-month period. Equipment assigned to the verification teams is included in the inspection team cost, as it is assumed that it will remain for their primary use. Furnishing and repair costs are included in the verifi- cation team cost, which would initially be in the area. It is assumed that 90%.of verification personnel will remain as part of the inspection teams. For the additional personnel brought in for the inspection teams, additional funds are added for furnishings and repairs. For the second year, the estimated inspection team cost of $90,161,088. may be reduced by $9,750,000. This represents the initial cost of furnishings which does not become an annual expense. 73 TOP SECRET Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET For second and subsequent years the estimated team cost may be further reduced by about one-third of the total aircraft and vehicle cost, or about $12,000,000. This is based on the assump- tion of replacement of one-third of the aircraft and vehicles annually. Cost of Naval Air Reconnaissance aircraft should like- wise be reduced by one-third or $48,000,000 for second and sub- sequent years.

PERSONNEL POLICIES (Including Support). The task'of maintaining minimum acceptable standards of living for the teams will probably be one of the most difficult problems in the implementation of an effective inspection system. It could be found desirable to establish small, practically self- sufficient communities for American and allied personnel (and families, if included), particularly at the more important shore installations. It would seem elementary that the'inspection system, however well designed, will not function satisfactorily unless competent people can be attracted to'this type of duty. Living standards should at least provide for a minimum of those peace-time comforts and conveniences to which our service person- nel have become accustomed. The'more services provided, the larger and more expensive the inspection operation. Therefore, while setting up those services necessary, we must keep them to the minimum acceptable. Furthermore, with respect to assign- ing or selecting personnel for inspection duty, it will be advisable to choose those people with i) relatively "even" dis- positions who will be able to take petty and continuing annoy- ances in stride, and with 2) sufficiently stable personal qualities to fortify them against over-susceptibility to Soviet TOP SECRET Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET inducements toward laxity. or irresponsibility on the-job. Clearly the logistics which must be provided the U.S. teams present a real problem. The TFNI accepts the Army Task Force plan on Administration and Logistical Support Requirements with such modification as is noted in Appendix G herein. The TFNI wishes to suggest, however, an alternative means of logistical support which may prove highly satisfactory for ,servicing many of its teams and possibly Army and Air Force teams positioned at the same loca- tionsas the Navy teams (or in close proximity thereto).. If feasible, a U.S..Navy unarmed ship might be moored at those. USSR naval bass where verification and inspection teams are to be located As to thetype,of ship to be used, it is be- lieved that communication ships (AGC)t small transports (AP) and ice breakers (AGB) would be suitable, depending on the contem- plated location. Regardless of the type, it. is important that the subject ship have suitable communication and radar equip- ment and a helicopter landing platform. If such an alternative means of logistical support were used, it. would have many. advantages over basing teams ashore. The ship would provide a compact operating base with: TOP SECRET is 0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET facilities for rapid and secure communications, early warning radar observation of USSR naval fleet and air movements, boats and helicopters for routine and emergency observations, good security for equipment and publications, shops and technicians for the maintenance of equipment, ready means for collecting hydrographic and meterological data on the USSR, fully accepta- ble living quarters, medical services, and entertainment and leisure activities such as libraries and motion pictures. It would provide all these immediately without delay for instal- lation. Of course there would be some disadvantages. In many locations there may not be wholly adequate mooring facilities. And in some ports, the ship might be icebound during the winter months which would render immediate recall impracticable. Such disadvantages, however, are believed minor in'comparison with the advantages gained. ;Should such a ship be provided, we would of course want to provide for periodic thorough inspection of the ship by the host country, in the likely event the Soviets should also base person- nel on ships. The inspection proviso would thus provide some in- surance against the introduction and storage of nuclear weapons in ships. 81 TOP SECRET Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP 3. RIGHTS, PGJERS AND PRIVILEGES. Careful consideration must be given to the rights, powers and privileges of the inspection organization, to be negotiated as part of the agreement. Satisfactory completion of the verification phase will re- quire that our teams be accorded the rights m .privileges of substantially complete "freedom of movement" within defined land and sea areas, and in specified air spaces, in addition to recon- naissance rights. They must also be granted immediate access to the agreed "blueprint" materials, such as pertinent reports and records kept by various installations and operating commands of the Soviet Navy. The "freedom of movement" and access problem in the inspec- tion phase will differ in some respects from the verification stage. Perhaps the real difficulty will arise in connection with continuous or periodic inspections. Interpretative and personal conflicts are bound to arise in situations when the U. S. teams, feeling that a critical' indicator may be involved, demands to make an immediate, unannounced inspection of a certain facility and is refused on the grounds that it is contrary to the "agreement", or is not within the defined areas of "freedom of movement", or for the reason that it is simply late at night TOP SECRET Is 0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET and the inspection could have as easily been made during work- ing hours, or some other specious excuse. The following rights, powers and privileges are submitted for consideration: (a) The host government shall have the right to examine personal baggage, supplies, equipment, ships, vehicles and air- craft upon entry into its country to preclude the introduction of arms, weapons, and propaganda. There should be similar examinations prior to departures of ships and aircraft to detect clandestine activities of inspection personnel. (b) In order to insure that the personnel of each inspec- tion organization are continuously in a position to fulfill their responsibilities, they'must be granted the following rights, powers and rivileges, except as provided in '(a) above: (1) Rights of duly accredited representatives to the facilities of ingress and egress into and from the territory of the other nation including rights of transit for persons and equipment across and through such territory. (2) The right to use designated communication facili- ties of the host country to the extent necessary for the dis- charge of inspection responsibilities. 83 TOP SECRET 40 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET (3) Such exemptions from customs and . administrative regulations as may be necessary to effective operations. ,(4) Inviolability. of premises, (except for periodic inspection as provided in the agreement) property, and archives, including protection of classified equipment on downed aircraft.

Means of Access, Transportation and Reporting Transportation: Plane Train Ships-and boats Auto Instrument assistance in access and reporting: Aerial survey: interpretative photography Radar Sonar Radiation detection Closed circuit TV Channels for reporting information: Plane Radio' Land Wire Regular mail Guard mail Messenger 86 TOP SECRET 0 ? to Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET In the inspection phase the transportation, instrument assistance and communications channel problems will have to be adjusted for continuous operation. Transportation pools - automobiles, planes, etc. - must be established. In those situations where continuous surveillance is required the most effective procedure may be to install our own radar or closed circuit television systems. Naval Air Reconnaissance The Naval Task Group adopts in substance for its Air Reconnaissance Plan the provisions of the Plan heretofore agreed upon by the Navy Department and the Air Force. The U.S. Navy will participate with the U.S. Air Force in the Reconnaissance of targets of naval interest within the USSR. The Navy's initial contribution should be: (a) Two long-range photographic squadrons which can be operated from land and sea bases as required. (b) Two observation-type photographic squadrons which can be operated from land and sea bases as required. (c) A total of 2,000 officers and men. (d) Air-Sea Rescue aircraft and personnel as required. 87 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP 'SECRET There will also be a need for continuous naval air recon- naissance to seaward of naval operating bases.

REPORTS Access has two important aspects that must be kept in mind: (a) First., it must be directed above all to the goal of getting information early enough to prevent surprise attack. (or to reduce the possibility to an acceptable d;3gr ee). (b) Second,, our own request for access to facilities., opera- tions reports and records should weigh the general intelligence gains that may thereby be achieved for the United States against the benefits the Soviets mi ht gain from reciprocal provisions.

This requirement has been fully treated in the basic plan and in-appendices. We need merely reiterate here that this is a difficult task that depends primarily upon a wide-spread ground inspection system tied in with aerial inspection' tuned .to detect. changes in the day to day tempo of Soviet naval activity. Provision for access to facilities; and reports must emphasize efforts to gain information on movements of nuclear weapons and carriers. For the Navy this includes mine and torpedo depots, guided missile, bomb and other ammunition depots. It includes especially submarine bases, medium range aircraft bases, medium range aircraft-guided missile bases and amphibious bases in such areas as the Black Sea,. Baltic Sea and the Sea oSf,Japan. It in- cludes to a lesser degree key anti-aircraft and technical guided missile units.. Lastly, it includes careful attention to all means of getting information concerning the operation of 'Soviet naval air, surface, and undersea draft which comprises not only visual and radar observation but access to and study of USSR naval employment schedules, ship disposition, records, upkeep and overhaul plan, ship and aircraft movement reports and plot- ting boards in fleet and force operation centers. 89 TOP SECRET Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET. Changes in.-tempo of Soviet naval*activity will be observed.(if..they are observed) from a combination of informs mation obtained'from.operation plans and schedules-and from persormel.observations in those. localities that will give the foregoing -.information. Some of ."these locations are isubmarine operating bases, naval air and guided missile bases, supply and ammunition depots-(especially those related to.nuclear weapons where this can bedetermined), naval arsenals (especial- ly those where nuclear weapons. might be assembled)., and naval training, stations (in particular those with 'nuclear training and,operation centers). The second factor, general.. intelligence, to be gained' from access to facilities and repos has likewise been treated at some length in .other ,parts-of this study, especiallg Part ill. In considering this factor we should take into account the higher level,of:-existing Soviet Intelligence compared:to ours.

Likewise, we may consider that access to a multiplicity of reports and records would be merely confusing. For example, mutual access to most of the paper work generated in our correspond- ing Navy Departments would be of doubtful value. On the other hand, it would be useful to interchange such information as annual and quarterly reports of materialdand personnel bureaus, with adequate provision for checking. It would also be useful to have such information as blueprints on facilities (for example, a submarine base or a naval arsenal that might assemble nuclear weapons), reports that identify an activity as to proper strength of person- nel, control structure and disposition of personnel and equipment. It would also be useful to have records of strategic materials used at a facility or base, especially where these are indispensa- ble to the manufacture of nuclear weapons or launchers or carriers such as rockets. 91 TOP SECRET Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET The greatest value would be. derived from a combination of a review of periodic reports and on-the-spot, day-to-day inspections in-such locations as training. stations, munition depots, operating bases and fleet operations control rooms. 92 TOP SECRET 0 4P Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET APPENDIX A TABLE A USSR NAVAL INSTALLATIONS AND ACTIVITIES SUBJECT TO REPORTING In many situations one naval installation or complex 1.

DISCLOSURE AND VERIFICATION Mr. Stassen, in his memorandum, subject: "U. S. Policy on Control of Armaments", dated 1 November 1955, stated that the comprehensive inspection organization "would be installed by stages". Ile are convinced that the USSR would enter into any agreement of disclosure and verification in bad faith and would carry it out in bad faith. Since the USSR has far more information on the U.S. than vice versa, it is probable that a disclosure and verifi- cation system could be so devised that in the initial phases the U. S. would secure more valuable information than would the Soviet Union. This would require that the USSR be prevented from securing in those initial phases information intended to be withheld until a later phase, or not to be disclosed at all. Beyond the initial stages, phasing of such a disclosure and verification system will become increasingly difficult and there will be a correspondingly greater likelihood that the USSR will secure information of commensurate value to that obtained by the United States. - 107 - TOP SECRET APP?

Formulation. of such a program involves the following considerations: .a. Disclosure must cover all armed forces of every, kind including para-military, security and police forces, and all armaments including atomic, b. Disclosure and verification must be carried out stage by stage with appropriate provisions for proceeding to the next stage when and only when. the current stage has been completed satisfactorily by the signatory nations. A definite time limit should be established for the completion of each stage. - 108 - TOP SECRET.

Disclosure and verification should proceed from the less secret areas which would be disclosed and verified in the early stages to the more secret areas. Sensitive aspects of re- search and development in all, fields, manufacturing processes and .details of new weapons (the measure of U. S. technological superi- ority) should be excluded altogether. The freedom of movement and access of inspection teams should in general be carefully limited to quantitative verification of numbers, types, sizes, etc., although within these limits inspection should be as full and free as possible. Detailed inspection of technical specifications, performance data, etc., should be avoided. Although this limi- tation on the freedom of inspection would reduce the amount of in- telligence the U. S.. would acquire, it would be necessary in order to guard against premature disclosure of information which we would like reserved until substantial co-operation and good faith has been demonstrated. A phasing of this nature, in.addition to furnLshing the best indication of a lack of Soviet good faith, would cause the minimum degree of interference in the internal life of each country, since the less sensitive information can in fact be.'more readily verified, and would, in cases of differences or delays, prevent premature disclosure of information. -,log - TOP SECRET AI PEUDIX B Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP, SECRS'T Aside from phasing, the types' of disclosure and veri- fication procedures employed in each phase would be of vital importance in minimizing the risks to the U.

This contradiction is further apparent when we examine two basic problems implicit in any veri- fication system.

On the other hand, only by careful restrictions on the movement of inspectors could the USSR be prevented from acquiring in the earlier phases information re- served for later phases, or not to be disclosed in any phase.

S. of prematurely revealing at earlier phases information which the U. S. planned to disclose only in later phases or not at all. Consequently it is doubtful whether in any phase the U. S. should allow Soviet inspectors freedom to travel anywhere and inspect everything. The problem, therefore, is to devise an inspection system which, while less than complete, would still increase the relative gains to the U. S. while minimizing the risks of premature U. S. disclosure. In considering the appropriate number of stages, con- sideration was given'-to the objective that full implementation of the program of disclosure and verification should proceed as rapidly as feasible in the light of the existing state of inter- national tensions. An excessive number of stages, each of which must be completed prior to the commencement of the next stage would unduly delay the program. t-Yith this in mind, it is con- cluded that the number of stages of disclosure and verification should be five -- a figure which represents the minimum number consistent with the preceding considerations.

The types of nuclear weapons which the USSR possesses, or has the capability of developing, are bombs, torpedoes, mines, torpedo mines ("creepers") and guided missiles. There are two classes of nuclear weapons carriers which must be considered in such a study by the TFNI; namely, naval vessels and naval aircraft (medium range). In addition, it must be recognized that merchant ships can be used as car- riers. For the purposes of this study, i.e., advance re- porting of projected movements, merchant ships need not be dealt with, for their movements are subject to report in accordance with world-wide shipping practices. A note of warning in this connection should be recorded, however, that TOP SaCRET APPENDIX C Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET the distinction between' naval vessel and a merchant ship is very fine in Russia where all ships are state-owned. For example, during the last war-an incident occurred in which a naval tanker was temporarily denied entrance to a United States port, under the rule -6f clearance through diplcmatic channels, to furnish us with a quid pro quo in negotiations on a visa problem and aMurmansk ship repair request. The next visit of the same tanker to the Jest Coast found it registered as a merchant ship. The capabilities of naval vessels as nuclear weapons carriers stems from the guided missile with an atomic warhead, in addition to the traditional torpedoes and mines. It must be assumed that Russia-has developed the missile, the launcher, and the control system for ship-board firing. That we are able-to-fire such missiles, both from surface' ships and sub- marines, is well-known to all the world. It is now eight years since our submarine capability was publicized. It is customary among naval powers to plan the movements of ships well in advance. For example, we develop yearly operating plans which define the general employment and loca- tion of ships for that'year. This is nebessary in order to TOP SJ~CH T APP NDIX C Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 ,TOP SECRET plan adequately for upkeep and maintenance periods, ship- yard overhauls, and for the extensive supply system needed to support operations. These yearly schedules are then broken down into shorter periods, quarterly for example, in more detail, and finally into weekly or bi-weekly operating schedules. The inspection plan should provide, therefore, for exchange of operating plans and schedules of the several fleets and subdivisions thereof, down to the individual ship. This information will serve, not as a complete safe- guard of course, but rather to establish contemplated oper- ating patterns. Professional judgment applied thereto can establish, to a degree, the changes in the patterns, if any, which would be required to initiate war through a surprise attack. It will also furnish a basis for judging indications to be derived from the activities of naval shore establishments which support the ships, naval bases, naval shipyards, ammunition and supply depots, training facilities and the like. As will be readily recognized, the interchange of such information will not in and of itself justify reliance at any given time upon the employment of Russian naval vessels TOP SECRET APPENDIX C 0 S Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SICRET as being that which they. have declared. And furthermore, while verification of the announced movements can be had to a degree through aerial search and observation, it can- not be relied upon as adequate for an effective inspection plan. In the case of submarine operations, if they are cleverly operated, they will not be observed at all, while low visibility will at times protect surface ships from observation. It is because of these and other considerations that the TFNI again concludes that ground inspection of naval activities is a necessary part of the plan. In order to complete this study, therefore, there has been prepared a supplementary study, "Detection of Movements of Nuclear Weapons Carriers," Appendix D. Turning next to advance reporting of naval aircraft, the TFNI recommends, as part of the inspection plan, inter- change of operating plans and schedules, which., although not necessarily projected as far into the future as in the case of naval vessels, nonetheless do have to provide periods for routine checks, major overhauls, and supply. To that extent this information will be helpful in furnish- ing indications of strategic, if not tactical, intentions. 123 ..

In addition to operating plans and schedules, there should be an interchange of detailed flight plans. Veri- fication of such information is more questionable, although departures and arrivals predicted in flight plans can be checked on the ground. In addition, radar check points can follow within limits the flight route itself. For the reasons heretofore stated, in the case of ships, however, the TFNI concludes that advance reporting of nuclear weapons carriers must be supplemented by a thoroughly realistic detection system -- hence Appendix D. 12- 124 TOP SECRET APPENDIX C 0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 APPENDIX D INSP UTION PROC DUh"S AND TL;C{ NI4UES 1.

Before we put, our faith in an inspection system, we must be reasonably certain of what kind of surprise attack we prepare against, of what type of warning indicators we can depend on,, and what data we need to provide such indi- cators. le must avoid accepting a bare minimal or a single type of inspection, because of the certainty that human fallability and Soviet guile will defeat a, plan based on this narrow foundation.

In developing inspection plans, we must consider both of the following general possibilities of Soviet initiation of war: 1) supporting massive nuclear attack with large scale conventional attack 2) to increase possibility'of surprise and resulting disastrous damage to the iestern powers, making the initial attack principally with nuclear weapons and employing conventional forces to follow up as soon as possible. !t. Because of the overwhelming advantage to be gained-from- surprise.,. the Soviet leaders will do everything possible to cover up preparations for initiating war. They'will realize that inspection cannot eliminate surprise, so that-even with an apparently adequate system-of mutual reporting, verification and-inspection, it might never- theless be possible to start World War III with sudden and unexpected nuclear attack. This might, in fact, be delivered with only a portion of their forces because of the great destructiveness that can be achieved with nu- clear weapons.

They may well get ready for operations of suf- ficient magnitude that changes in their day to day activities will become 'apparent to inspection teams that have unrestricted freedom of movement and alertly carry out their duties. PROBABLE NATURE OF T.U,u SURPRISE ATTACK 6, What kind of surprise attack must we prepare against? We must, of course, expect attack by long-range aircraft including those capable of only one-way flight to the United States.

We may furthermore expect, if we emphasize inspection of only part of the USSR's potentiality that the Soviets will devise means both to reduce the effectiveness of that particular inspection, and to increase the relative ratio of other means of surprise attack. They seek "peace" and will accept an inspection system simply as a "truce" during which they will hope to steadily gain advantage over the United States in comparative strength. WARNING INDICATIONS 8. In looking for warning indications, we must take into account a) the generally accepted conclusion that nuclear weapons themselves are readily concealed - hence, for an in- spection system to be effective it must be directed - 329 - TOP SECRET APPENDIX D Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET at means of delivery; and the certainty that, should the Soviets start World War III, they will go ""all out" to damage us as much as possible on D-Day. Although for purposes of sur- prise they might accept essential reduction in num- bers of attacking forces, including long-range aircraft, they will undoubtedly employ every means of attack possible within the limitations of the desired degree of concealment. We must therefore look for indications, not only in opera- tion of long-range aircraft, but in the several other critical areas, a number of which also involve delivery of nuclear weapons. 9. Aerial photography and periodic ground inspection wi11 of themselves contribute to detection of Soviet preparations, especially if the Soviets intend to combine massive nuclear attack with a large scale conventional attack on D-Day.: However, these methods alone may be grossly inadequate to detect, in timely fashion, changes in the tempo of Soviet activity should the Soviets decide to initiate war with only nuclear attack delivered by normal operating forces.

To outwit this limited inspection system, the Soviets may be expected to use many stratagems, such as ruses. to confuse rada, lulling alertness of inspectors through warlike training missions, including long, un- explained absences of units from their home fields, and through operation from smaller fields made possible by rocket assisted take-offs. 11. To have a reasonable chance of obtaining warning indica- tions of impending "surprise" nuclear attack, we must direct our inspection system at all means of nuclear delivery. It must thus include long- and medium-range aircraft, long- and medium-range guided missiles, surface ships, submarines, and key anti-aircraft and ground tac- tical guided missile units. 12. In all of these areas, our inspection will have to be geared to detect variations that in and of themselves might in many cases not seem significant; but together would have ominous meaning. - 131- .TOP SECRET APPENDIX D Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP SECRET 13. We can be sure that in all inspected locations the Soviets will prepare for war under the disguise of normal operations, This disguise will not be easy to penetrate. For example, consider a submarine base. Submarines come and go all the time. We may expect that the Soviets will keep approximately 1/3 of their submarines at sea, training with training munitions that closely resemble the nuclear ones they will use in war. Aerial photography, periodical ground inspec- tion, or even daily count of submarines will be of limited value in detecting preparations to use nuclear weapons. After the inspection team has departed or the photography plane has gone on its way, it should be an easy matter to equip submarines for war and to send them on what is apparently a normal training operation, es- pecially if the Soviets have operated far in advance under a routine schedule of extended cruises. 14. A similar situation exists in most of the other critical areas. In nuclear war a limited quantity of munitions and a limited number of ships, planes and missiles may be able to deliver almost a crippling blow. Significant - 132 - TOP SECRET APPENDIX D 0 ?

In order to have a reasonable chance of detecting prep- arations by the Soviet i'avy for surprise nuclear war, therefore, we must have tl'ained naval inspectors con- tinuously on hand in the more important locations. They should be supplemented by aerial photography and trav- eling inspection teams in the less critical localities. 16. Indications of preparations for surprise attack with nuclear weapons may appear through increased activity in such locations as the following: a) nuclear munition depots and assembly plants and other key arsenals where nuclear munitions might be concealed. b) submarine bases and other naval bases to a lesser degree c) long- and medium-range aircraft bases -- especially those within a reasonable range of the coast and frontiers.

To have adequate protection against surprise nuclear attack we should therefore have inspection teams at all these critical locations. It is not easy to determine what are the detailed indications they may be able to note in each type of critical location. The following paragraphs will attempt to estimate some of these. 18. The Soviets can no doubt disguise many preparations. Thus the best means to develop a useful syllabus of indicators for inspection tears will be by actual test and war gaming them at similar locations in the U.S. The general indicators that follow are offered as only a tentative guide from rich test and experience will develop more valid ones, and in more detail. - 134- TOP SECRET APPENDIX D Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80B01676R000600070001-0 0 TOP S2CRET 19. Warning Indications at Nuclear Munition Depots and Assembly Plants, and at Other Key Arsenals Where Nuclear Munitions can be Concealed. a) These locations are among the first places we would hope to find indication of nuclear attack. If we could adequately police these, much of our problem would be solved. That we cannot is obvious; but our plan should provide for as complete inspection as possible, which would be certain to give some warning indications that could be among the most important any of our inspecting teams would obtain. b) One of the last places we will be able to put inspec- tion tea-..,,,s will be at nuclear manufacturing centers and to a lesser degree at nuclear munition depots. We can probably have them stationed somewhat earlier at naval arsenals; and in some respects this will be more beneficial, since nuclear weapon assembly for naval use will be carried out at least in part at these arsenals. Furthermore, experience at these will soon indicate other arsenals where naval inspec- tors should be stationed.

Warning Indications in Surface Ship and Submarine operations a) One of the critical factors in nuclear surprise attack against the United States will be the submarine and to a lesser degree the surface ship.

This applies both to the secret laying of static and creeper nuclear mines over a period.of months prior to the war, and to the attack with--guided missiles and other nuclear weapons on D-Day. b) Furthermore, if warning indications can be gained from submarine operations, some of these at least will have the advantage of giving greater advanced notice. Since the Soviets cannot afford to sacrifice the clear advantage of utilizing their vast number of submarines in surprise nuclear attack, we may hope to find in their submarine preparations some of the best early warning indications, c) The laying of static and "creeper" mines over a period of months preliminary to the Soviet planned date for war will be a difficult operation to detect.

This might be in variation in load; it might be in repeated long absences from base of certain submarines; it might be in the fact that the same submarines would on each voyage call ata certain munitions depot for special loading. There will be better opportunity for inspection teams to note warning indications during the final prepa- rations for D-Day. The attitude and activity on a submarine base during these final weeks may reveal tell-tale indications. e) These indications will be of vital value whether or not we can obtain agreement that will effectively limit the number of Soviet submarines at sea at any one time and therefore reduce the nuclear attack hazard, It is not certain that this desirable measure can be achieved; even if the Soviets agreed to it they would develop means to negate it. For example, should they agree to having no more than 1/4 of their long range submarines at sea for prolonged training -139-- TOPP SECRET APPI NDIX D Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 Approved For Release 2009/02/23: CIA-RDP80BO1676R000600070001-0 TOP OECRET exercise, they might well equip this 1/4 (more than 50 vessels:) with nuclear weapons for attacking the continental ,United States.
