S: 02
SUMMARY OF INFORMATION
The key developmental activity is the direct result of
advanced (computer) "programming that "receives, directs, and
instructs. "
Although the developmental
activity is being applied to
submarines the main thrust of the (new ADP) programming is the
missile being accommodated by the submarine.
COPS COMMENTS:
The concept of "graphite" and "water sealant"
surfaced but the meaning and practical application of that
concept was not further described]
IOPS COMMENTS:
Utilizing a color schematic (ENCLOSURE 1) ,
025 indicated that the advancements were being done on both the
Soviet manufactured "Yankee-Class" submarine and the "Delta-
Class" submarine; priority preference was
being given the
"Yankee-Class submarine. ]
