A Bug Among the Trees?
US intelligence designed this device to look like a tree stump and then planted it in a wooded area near Moscow. Why? A bug inside eavesdropped on radar and communications from a nearby Soviet airbase.
The solar-powered stump stored the data, relaying it to the CIA only when a satellite passed overhead or an embassy car was nearby. A US traitor eventually revealed the stump's location to the KGB. |
