and the partial completion of two wings on the engine test building at
Annotation A. The unusual features at this plant are located at Annotation A,
Annotation B, Annotation #89 (Enclosure #1) and Annotation #1 (Enclosure #2).
The following is a description of each of the aforementioned'annotations..
Annotation A; this building has been identified as a test facility for an
25X1 The building miulti-winged with the base wing measuring
1470' x 65'?. There are seven projecting wings, two of which are under
construction and measure 85' x 30' and are, probably single test bays, one
measures 150' x 25' and is probably a single test bay and four measure
150', x 55', three are probably double test bays and the fourth a single
test bay with an additional servicing area. The seven wings are served by
individual exhaust towers approximately 65 to 75 feet above ground level.
Annotation B; this area consist 'of three buildings one large and two smaller
buildings. The large building was a former thermal electric power plant,.
25X1 which has bem -Rd sincel _J to house three engine test cells.
The two smaller buildings are new since 195b but are prior to
one building hon ss a large teat cell an4. the other is an unidentified
building. Me thno buildings are connected by pipeline. Annotation #89;
the function of this building is It is adjacent to the transformer
yard (Annotatticm #9) but separated am additional fence. The buildi

5. Summary
Shen-Yang Aircraft Engine plant #410 and Shen-Yang Arsenal 90th are
definitly interrelated in their productiou.a.etivities. A more complete
evaluation of production activities at these two plants cannot be determined
from present photography. Additionalaphotographic coverage would be needed
for a complete analysis of the engine test facilities. The arsenal may still
be engaged in the production of armament. The aircraft engine plant may or
may not be'producing aircraft engines as a primary product. Airframe production
is possible but doubtful since the entrances of the final assembly sections on
the assembly buildings are not wide enough to accommodate an assembled aircraft.
Aircraft repair is probably undertaken at the facilities of the adjacent Shen-
Yang Airfield Southeast, (see tion p Enclosure #1 and Annotation #7
~ ~ Enclosure #2). Each of salons used in this study shows a notable
increase in overall activity s 1 h plants.
