New Collection Access Yields ‘Spectacular’ Intel

SUMMARY

In October 2004, one signals intelligence program, "RAINFALL," "successfully geolocated signals of a suspected Indian nuclear weapons storage facility." In response, several other parts of the NSA collaborated to confirm that the signals were related to Indian nuclear weapons, and to begin a new collection effort that revealed "spectacular" amounts of intelligence on India's nuclear weapons capabilities.
