One requirement (RR/E/R30/61) requests determina- 25X6 tion of whether the Guideline missile photographed at the SA-2 SAM launch site has a nose probe. From examination 25X1 of the p otograp y ate June 1961), the presence or absence of a nose probe on this missile could not be determined. The second requirement (RR/E/R31/61) asks for a comparison of the Guideline missiles photographed at parades in Budapest (May 1960), and Prague (1961) and Moscow (7 November 1957). In response, Figure 1, which presents three sketches based on FTD drawings, illustrates this comparison.
