How the CIA Stole a Nuclear Submarine (Right Under Soviet Noses)
Imagine losing a nuclear submarine and deciding to just pretend it never happened. That is exactly what the Soviet Union did in 1968. But the CIA knew exactly where it was—three miles down at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Instead of leaving it there, they came up with the craziest plan in Cold War history. They hired eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes to build a fake deep-sea mining ship for $350 million, just to steal the sub right under the Soviet Navy's nose. This is the story of Project Azorian. It has a giant mechanical claw, missing nukes, and the origin of the most famous phrase in government secrecy: "We can neither confirm nor deny".
