Ike was concerned about over-estimating Russia’s military, which we did due to insufficient intel. That was why he built the first spy jet and sought the ‘free skies’ deal.

Ironically, Ike was the very boogeyman people try to make us think he feared. No president of his century was more aggressive with secret operations that successfully toppled foreign governments.
