DID JOHN WALKER KNOW THAT MUCH OF THE US NAVY WOULD BE SACRIFICED IN A PREEMPTIVE STRIKE? AND DID THAT DRIVE HIM TO SPY FOR THE SOVIETS?
John Walker gave the Soviets the ability to know where the US subs were at all times. How would this have been possible? John Walker's treachery began in line with the development of the KH-9. The most likely candidate for a satellite based Anti-Submarine Warfare Satellite. The navy was developing lasers to detect submarines in the early 1960's. It was mentioned in the Mechanix Illustrated in early 1963. They had been working on it for at least a couple of years before publishing of that article. There is also a possibility that a muon tomography based passive system had been developed to see the subs as well. The Hexagon system was also most likely integrated into the US Navy's passive sonar array known as SOSUS. So, it looks like Walker gave the Soviets the ability to tap into the U.S. military's satellite feed that allowed them to see the subs from space. He also gave the ability to jam the system. Because secure communications are essential to make the integrated system work.
KH-9 "THE HEXAGON"
This was floating around circa 1981. It comes from a document outlining different methods for delivering nuclear weapons. This document was of interest because it shows something in the sea being attacked. If we go by what Ben Rich says about the release of information being delayed for 8 to 10 years. Then the orbital based system here goes back to 1971. But we know from other documents that the Air Force was developing the CAMAL in the mid -1950's
SPACE COMMAND
It is notable that the defense stations in this picture form a hexagon and the hexagon system was the name for the KH-9. It is also notable that the hexagon of surveillance satellites sit in a higher orbit than the defence stations. One might think, the KH-9 was a intelligence gathering satellite, they must be the satellites pictured there. But, the KH-9 would not have sat at that orbit. The KH-9's were orbiting at 100 to 200 miles above the earth. So, the KH-9 was the defense station.In addition, with nuclear engines to correct their orbits and optical camouflage the KH-9 could also stay on the darkside of the earth, evading detection by never traversing the sun and the optical camouflage would disguise it while traversing the moon. The satellites would need to refuel. So, there is probably a refueling station hidden in near earth Lagrange Point.
Walker's spyring also gave the Soviets information on Diego Garcia America's AREA-51 in the Indian Ocean.
THE Russians had no coverage of the Island.
