Four of these, Kostroma, Kozelsk, Teykovo, and Yedrovo, are in the western USSR and the fifth complex, Perm, is further east in the Urals (Figure 1). Each of these complexes (Kostroma, Kozelsk, Perm, Teykovo, and Yedrovo) contains launch facilities for an older missile system as well as for the SS-11, a rail-to-road transfer point with training site, complex support facilities, and a headquarters command and control facility. The Perm, Teykovo, and Yedrovo ICBM Complexes also each have an alternate command and control facility. Type IIID launch sites have been deployed at five of the ten SS-11 ICBM complexes BASIC DESCRIPTION Kostroma ICBM Complex The Kostroma ICBM Complex (Figure 2 and Table 2) is approximately 165 nautical miles (nm) southeast of Moscow. 1 The complex has eight confirmed type IIID launch groups and seven SS-7 launch sites. This com lex now has 79 confirmed type IIID launch 25X1 sites, of which 21 were identified These launch sites are contained in eight launch groups, designated I through The eighth confirmed launch group (P) was 25X1 identified Activity observed only onsisting of vehicle tracks and two small clearings in an area approximate y 15 nm east of launch site 60M was designated possible launch site 102Q. If this site is confirmed it will be in the ninth launch group at this complex. Launch groups I, J, K, and L are complete, with the L group 25X1 completel Launch groups M and N are in the late stage of construction and 25X1 launch group 0 is in the midstage of construction. Only nine launch sites have been identified in launch group P. These were in the midstage of construction when last observed UR 25X1 See below 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved FoT(P1e9F f RE T 25X1 ved For I QgasWk Table 1.

Site orientation at launch group N is 355 degrees and the site orientation of launch group P is 25X1 The access road to Kostroma A, the dummy type HID launch site, was partially 25X1 resurfaced and a simulated silo door was added o 25X1 significant activity or changes have been observed at any of the seven SS-7 aunc sites. The activity and equipment observed in the rail-to-road transfer point appear to be 25X1 consistent with the level of site construction. The training site (51X) was complete" 25X1 Construction material seen in the complex support facilities appears to be sufficient to support the construction of the ninth launch group. Kozelsk ICBM Complex The Kozeisk ICBM Complex (Figure 3 and Table 3) is approximately 120 nm south- southwest of Moscow. 2 The complex has 11 confirmed type HID launch groups and five SS- 8 launch sites. This complex now has 103 type HID launch sites, 25 of which were identified on 25X1 photography These launch sites are contained in 11 launch groups, designated G through Q. The eleventh launch group, Q, presently consisting of two launch sites, was identified 25X1 Launch rou s G, H, I, J, K, L, and M are complete, with the L and M 25X1 groups completed There were nine complete sites in the N group and six 25X1 complete sites in the group When last observed only three sites in the P group were comp ete. F third launch site (125Q) in group Q was in the midstage of construction when identified The orientation of the launch sites in the 0 and P groups is 350 degrees. Launch site orientation of the other launch groups is 320 degrees. No significant activity or changes were observed at any of the five SS-8 launch sites in the complex. Activity noted in the rail- to-road transfer point was consistent with the level of site construction. The training site 25X1 (46K) was complete Construction material observed in the complex support facilities appears to be sufficient to support the current construction program. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Jpa ~2 96/08: CIA-RDP78TO4563A000400010014-8 Approved If or dBWfR 25X1 25X1 M~ -`o 0 0 au as ao ao - c o 01 x ix C-) 4) jw v y r s` CrE E 0 mo a t~.~ f .boa O L o J C Y r - d l:; 72 ..., O ? r O?
