EVALUATION DATA: Viewer's Estimate 3 Evaluator's Estimate H E. SESSION SUMMARY: Viewer's Note: I had an Advanced Visual (AV) of a Carrier Group exercise. The targeted scheduled activities revolve around a ship-based or naval-based exercise. My sense is that a new organization or unit will be involved. It will be a new operation for the country(ies) involved. The activity is definitely associated with water. The location of this operation is the northern Indian Ocean, probably the Arabian Sea area. It will take place in an area which is characteristically shallow and where the ocean surface is generally smooth. I really sense that the purpose of this activity is to test some new equipment, assets or technology. It has to do with launching or releasing a smaller vessel from beneath a larger one; the pursuit of, and eventual attachment of a small object onto, larger vessels by this smaller vessel; and the sense that when these larger vessels pass through a subsurface "beam" of sorts, this beam in turn triggers or otherwise affects the small object attached to the ship. Other concepts include: 1) A winged-shaped object which feels as if it literally slides or slices between water molecules rather than "pushing" itself through the water. It appears "dark and sinister" and has a "stealthy" concept associated with it. It can travel in shallow water. Pointed and backward slanting projections angling up from its upper surface each produce a constant stream of bubbles. This Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002500060024-3
Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002500060024-3 somehow is associated with its camouflaging capability and/or propulsion system. 2) A large vessel appears as if its entire bottom drops downs and opens up. It then discharges a smaller object or vessel, which in turn slides easily out of the larger vessel. This smaller vessel then slips in under larger vessels which it can pursue undetected. I sense that the numerous streams of bubbles help to facilitate this "anonymity". This smaller vessel can come and go as it pleases; it can approach any object and get away before detection. 3) There is an opening reminiscent of an "aperture" on one of the vessels involved. I sense that it functions as a combination coupling attachment/discharging device. Conceptually, it's as if it can attach to something large, stay attached while discharging a smaller object, this disengaging itself and escaping undetected. 4) (Viewer's Note: This one is really bizarre!!!) I sense a yellowish "beam" which occurs 15' to 20' below, and running parallel to, the water surface. Itisa projected beam meant to be crossed and broken by the bow/hull of a ship. When the ship passes through this beam, the beam, in turn, triggers or otherwise affects a small object which had been attached to the ship at an earlier location. I sense that there is a great distance between the "attachment point" and the "triggering or affect point". 5) The concept of a "pyramid-based code" or a "stepped-based code" is associated with particularly the smaller, more agile object/vessel. Final Viewer's Note: Because of the bizarre nature of the data I perceived, I have a feeling that thetasking and/or this project is not completely clean. 2) Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002500060024-3
