(S/NF/SK) Tasking: ( Initial tasking data sheet attached) Additional tasking: What was destroyed? Where was the weapon used? Where was the weapon manufactured? 2. (S/NF/SK) Session: Source was informed that session would be a continuation of last operational session (CRV-05) . Session began in S6 with a time line search for the "points where (i.e. , when) the weapon was used." Time line encompassed the month of March 1984. Source was directed to gather data relevant to each point identified in the time line search, particularly with regard to the "target". Source was later asked to describe the area connected with each of these points. Towards the end of the session, ops officer passed a road network sketch to monitor, who then asked source to place "point C" on the map. 3. (S/NF/SK) Summary: Source identified four instances of weapon use during March 1984: Point A: Target (AOL-"F-102/6 aircraft") experienced "flaming abrasion" like a hot, powerful jet of gas playing on the surface of an object, burning and eroding it away. Point B: Target was a person or personnel in a crude structure or protected by a berm or bunker. Target could not easily be "got at" by "usual methods". Weapon use was both an operational test and an expedient; it is directional/selective, highly concentrated and "surgical ". Its effects can be delivered virtually instantaneously, even over kilometer distances.

- Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R001900060001-5 NOFORN-SKEET CHANNELS ONLY Point C: Weapon was deployed in a valley/gulley with a gravel road; steep, rocky hills on either side, bushes (AOL-"like creosote bushes") ; sparse, austere setting. Road goes up gulley into rocky, craggy mountains/hills with cliffs. At the site is a "BTR-60" on its side. There are other stationary mechanized vechicles and the smell/sound of burning material. Associated ideas are "unprotected/open/stationary" and "suprise/dead. " Also, idea of "a small child trying to sizzle a scurrying bug with a magnifying glass-bug gets hit, stops and curls up. " Weapon was employed in an elavated position so that it had plunging fire. (See source sketch of area) . Point D: Open area similiar to Point A. Personnel in open and unprotected; suprise. Idea of "heating a can of tomato soup from room temperature to 500 degrees instantly-not much left of corpse. " 4. (S/NF/SK) Feedback: Source was informed that he could be expected to work this target again. SGFOIA3 NOFORN-SKEET CHANNELS ONLY Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R001900060001-5 -
