Crucial Decision on Nuclear Submarine Fleet Expansion
President Johnson weighs whether to authorize a new Poseidon missile submarine fleet to counter Soviet and Chinese threats. Navy urges doubling missile subs over ten years, citing 636 Polaris warheads and a five-ocean reach. Pentagon opposes. McNamara proposes freezing missiles and refitting Polaris. Admiral Rickover pushes Congress to back the plan to keep U.S. lead. Russian subs number about 470 with limited underwater missile launches.
