The photos had already cost one life…

… and as the men from U.N.C.L.E. saw them projected on a screen in Alexander Waverly's office, they realized they were seeing a new weapon which could mean the deaths of billions more.

THRUSH was already at work building a fleet of them — and U.N.C.L.E. knew the work had to be stopped.
