Possible Renewed Soviet Requirement for L-Shaped Interferometers
A new L-shaped interferometer has been discovered under construction
at the X site associated with the Aleysk SS-9 ICBM complex (see Figure 7).
Because it is the first new L-shaped interferometer found at an ICBM
complex in the past 18 months and the only one ever identified at the X
site of an SS-9 complex, it may mean that the Soviets are renewing their
requirement for L-shaped interferometers. The only other L-shaped
interferometer at an X site was one begun earlier at the Olovyannaya
SS-11 complex, but never completed. Initial scarring for one of the
400-meter legs of the new interferometer at Aleysk was observed in
and the entire "L" is clearly visible in
two years after initial deployment of ICBM single silos
began, it was clear that the Soviets intended to construct an L-shaped
interferometer at the control sites of all SS-9 and some SS-II complexes.
However, by early work had abruptly ceased on 14 of those under
construction, and seven which had been planned were never actually begun
(see IAS Notes of 22 March 1968).
The purpose of L-shaped interferometers has never been definitely
established, and the operational status of the completed ones cannot be
determined from photography.
