The National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) has revealed the scale model of Osama bin Laden’s compound that was used to plan last year’s raid. US commandos also rehearsed the raid at a full-scale model of the compound.
This from the article:
The table-top model made its public debut Wednesday in the halls of the Pentagon, where soldiers and office workers stopped in the corridor and gazed in fascination at the elaborate miniature of Bin Laden’s compound.
With farm fields carved out of clay and the building’s walls made of styrofoam, the model was built in six weeks by a special team at the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA).
The NGA, which provides satellite imagery to the country’s spy agencies, has displayed the model in the entryway of its headquarters in Virginia since October, a spokeswoman said.
