ABSTRACT
Chita Krug Facility 2 is of conventional design, consisting of
a control building (goniometer), 40 cage antennas, a reflector screen,
and an outer security wall.

BASIC DESCRIPTION
Chita Krug Facility consists of the control building, 40 cage
antennas, a reflector screen, and an outer security wall (Figure 1).
The operational components of the Krug consist of the circle of 40
cage antennas in height, spaced at intervals. The
outside diameter o e circle of antennas is Immediately
inside the circle of cage antennas is a reflector screen supported by
40 pole masts, each 50 feet high; these are at intervals around
the diameter of the inner circle. In the center of the two

The outer wall, which is in diameter, provides security.
A guardhouse measuring is at the entrance to the facility.
An unidentified structure measuring is located between
the security wall and the antennas.
Although the cage elements of the Krug array are stationary,
it can be scanned 360 degrees by electronic switching. A rotating
goniometer sequentially connects sets of the cage elements to compose
a beam.'

Electrical power requirements for the Krug are comparatively
low because the antenna is a passive device. Normally, power is
brought in from the outside because of the noise problem
