ABSTRACT

25X1
Deployment of the Soviet SS-11 missile system continued at the Kostroma, Kozelsk,
Perm, Teykovo, and Yedrovo Complexes during 1969. These five complexes contain a total
of 414 confirmed type IIID launch sites, of which 86 were identified 25X1

Table 1). 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

The orientation of the sites in N and P groups differs from the 320-degree orientation of
sites in the other groups at this complex. 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.
