Yeah, but they are definitely thinking about satellites a lot in there. They mention an original alternative idea for seemingly fully computerized satellite run operation, which they considered was impractically ambitious and expensive for the time, but settled on a seemingly hybrid satellite/relay-aircraft UHF controlled, if I'm reading it right.
What interests me too is the "Handle via" line at the bottom: "BYEMAN-TALENT—KEYHOLE-COMINT
Control Systems Jointly" I wonder what that means?
- wantoncl 5y agoKEYHOLE and BYEMAN are code words regarding satellite reconnaisance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byeman_Control_System https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byeman_Control_System
- graderjs 5y agoThat's fascinating! So those terms refer to special compartmented intelligence, gained from satellites. Very cool :p ;) xx
