Marian Zacharski was a Polish Intelligence officer arrested in 1981 and convicted of espionage against the United States. After four years in prison, he was exchanged for American agents on Berlin's Glienicke Bridge. He returned to Poland, and has since been accused of flagrant mismanagement of a state company and illegal car trading. [1]

[edit] Espionage

Zacharski lived in the United States from 1977-1981, ostensibly working for a Polish trade company. Among other things, he won access to material on the then-new Patriot and Phoenix missiles, the enhanced version of the Hawk air-to-air missile, radar instrumentation for the F-15 fighter, "stealth radar" for the B-1 and Stealth bomber, an experimental radar system being tested by the U.S. Navy, and submarine sonar.
