William John Christopher Vassall (1924-1996) was a British civil servant who became a spy for the Soviet Union from 1954 until his arrest in 1962. Allegedly blackmailed into espionage, he provided critical information about naval technology, aiding the Soviet Navy's modernization. Vassall was sentenced to eighteen years in prison but was released after ten years. The scandal surrounding his activities was a significant embarrassment to the British government, overshadowed later by the Profumo affair.
