        Background Paper for the Comptroller
        SUBJECT: SSCI Add-on for SUN STREAK (U)
        1. (U) PURPOSE: To provide the breakout of the additional funds
        identifiea by-the SSCI in support of SUN STREAK efforts.
        2. (U)
             a. (SINF) The SSCI has identified a potential add-on to the
        FY91 budget of $8 million to support SUN STREAK efforts. This
        paper provides the breakout on how these funds will be used. Note
        that the program consists of two aspects: phenomenological research
        and operational pursuits. The research aspect is accomplished by
        DIA with the support of various research activities. The opera-
        tional aspect has been pursued via the DIA special access program
        SUN STREAK, that is currently under U.S. Army operational control.
        Future research should be kept separate from any SAP activity to
        facilitiate open research and to involve other laboratories and
        research centers.
             b. (SINF) The basic approach for this breakout is to denote
        the majority of the funds (about two thirds) to intelligence
        applications, with a smaller portion being used to continue
        research activities. This allocation results in a balanced program
        that further advances the effort toward the goal of operational
        use, while assuring a sound basis for the concept and phenomenology
        is developed. Particular emphasis will be given to investigating
        conditions that enhance reliability and repeatability.
        c. (SINF) The specific breakdown of the effort is as follows:

  3. (U) EXPECTED DEVELOPMENTS: Due to the nature of this program,
  with heavy reliance on established laboratory and research facili-
  ties, it is appropriate that these funds be managed by DIA to
  assure proper technical oversight, continuity with previous
  research activities, and exploitation of related foreign develop-
  ments.
  COORDINATION: None.
