 the end of this document)



This is a list of classified U.S. Department of Defense programs for fiscal

year 1995. This list includes items from the procurement budget, and the RDT&E

(Research, Development, Test and Evaluation) budget.



NOTE: This is a preliminary version - a more accurate picture of the costs

of these programs will be made after I obtain the joint House-Senate Armed

Services Committees defense budget for fiscal year 1995.

This document was created from unclassified sources. (See list at the end of

this document for sources). Programs are listed by R-1 line (line item in the

agency's RDT&E budget) or P-1 line (line item in the procurement budget),

Program Element (PE) number, and description or codename. (Codenames are

indicated with capital letters, i.e., MERIDIAN). It lists programs that

Congress will fund for fiscal year 1995. RDT&E funding is typically used for

advanced weapons (this is how the Stealth fighter was funded) and for

intelligence activities.

                  fiscal year (FY) 1995 changes from FY 1994:

                  ___________________________________________



* there are 2 new intelligence entities, Defense Airborne Reconnaissance

  Office (DARO) and the Central Imagery Office (CIO) that have been

  created within the last 3 years (see above). Intelligence programs operated

  by Department of Defense components normally fall under 3 major areas:

  - NFIP (National Foreign Intelligence Program)

  - GDIP (General Defense Intelligence Program)

  - TIARA (Tactical Intelligence And Related Activities)



* "special programs", PE 0102814A, no longer in Army budget for FY 1995.



* "world-wide military communications & control system (WWMCCS)", PE 0303152A,

  had its funding terminate in FY 1995.



* "airborne reconnaissance low", PE 0305150A is a new program for FY 1995.



* OLYMPIC, PE 0603105F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995.



* "classified program", PE 0102830F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995



* "intelligence production activities", PE 0301305F, no longer in Air Force

  budget for FY 1995.



* "intelligence telecom & defense special security system", PE 0301339F, no

  longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995.



* "space subsystems technology", PE 0603428F, no longer in Air Force budget

  for FY 1995.



* "Defense Reconnaissance Support activities", PE 0305159F, no longer in Air

  Force budget for FY 1995.



* "global grid communications", PE 0303123G, no longer in the National

  Security Agency FY 1995 budget.



* "foreign counterintelligence activities", PE 0305127V, new program for

  FY 1995.

REFERENCES USED TO CREATE THIS REPORT:

The creation of this document required extensive research, and the piecing

together of information from multiple unclassified sources. (What I did

is something that intelligence officials worry about - I used the so-called

"mosaic" approach to discover classified information by putting together

many scraps of information from unclassified sources.)



* Numerous Congressional documents, such as the House and Senate versions

  of the "National Defense Authorization Acts" for fiscal years 1990 to

  1995. (both the reports and the supporting testimony to Congress)



* Department of Defense Handbook DoD 7045.7-H, "FYDP Program Structure",

  October 1993.



* Department of the Air Force document "Supporting Data for Fiscal Year

  1994 - Budget Estimate Submission - Descriptive Summaries - Research,

  Development, Test and Evaluation", April 1993, copy 29 of 50, available

  from NTIS as item PB93-220879.



* Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) document AD-A264 093, "FY 1994

  Congressional Submission - RDT&E Descriptive Summaries", April 1993.

  

* Department of Defense document AD-A234 900, "Critical Technologies Plan for

  the Committees on Armed Services - United States Congress", May 1991.

  (I highly recommend this document for its descriptions of the technologies

  the U.S. military is interested in for the 1990s. The 1991 edition is the

  last Critical Technologies Plan that focused on defense. Subsequent Critical

  Technologies Plans focus on all areas of national technical interest.)



* budget summary documents released under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

  Title 10 of the United States Code requires that Congress be provided with

  program summaries. Section 2301 (10 U.S.C. 2301) covers unclassified programs

  while Section 119 (10 U.S.C. 119) covers classified programs.



* some material on spy satellites was provided by the Federation of American

  Scientists.



**************************************************************************



Costs of these programs are those the House of Representatives has approved

-- there may be minor changes in the joint Senate-House appropriation for

fiscal year 1995. Unfortunately, the Senate-House joint budget that was

decided in June of 1994 has not yet appeared at my local federal depository.



Other classified programs exist, but funding is provided by Department of

Defense components, such as the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) or

the Defense Intelligence Agency. The House Armed Services Committee uses the

phrase "appropriated but not authorized Special Access Programs" to describe

these. An example would be the Air Force's "Project ELEGANT LADY", PE

0208040F. Also, given the secrecy surrounding classified programs, I've

probably missed a few in the budget documents I've seen or made mistakes in

the information given above.



Although Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the U.S. Constitution requires that

all public money be publicly accounted for, senior military officials seem to

feel the Constitution doesn't apply to them. That's the reason I created this

report -- to expose acts that violate the U.S. Constitution. I believe that

American taxpayers have a right to know how and where their money is being 

spent.
