Drone Launch Site Identified on Baltic Coast
A drone launch site which may be associated with SAM firings from
naval vessels has been identified on the Baltic coast about 25 nm north-
west of Kaliningrad. This is the first identification in the Baltic area
of a site of this type, which is normally associated with the LA-17 target
drone. The site was under construction in On small-scale 2 511
coverage of lit appeared to be occupied by drones.
The presence of a permanent drone launch site on the Baltic coast
suggests that the firing of SAMs from naval vessels will continue in that
area. Similar sites have been found in the Northern and Black Sea Fleet
areas, where naval SAM testing has also been recorded.

NORTH VIETNAM/LAOS
POL Pipeline Construction Continues
POL pipeline construction is continuing in the panhandle areas of
North Vietnam and Laos. Recent photography indicates that the southern-
most of the two pipelines serving he Laotian panhandle is now connected
to the port of Quang Khe. There is also slight evidence that this pipe-
line will be connected with the pipeline extending from the port of Vinh
into the northern Laotian panhandle (see map).
Segments of the southernmost pipeline serving the Laotian panhandle
were first observed on photography of Although only inter-2 5X1 D
mittent segments of pipeline have been seen along portions of this route,
photography of indicates that it is almost certainly complete
between Quang Khe and the Se Bang Hieng Valley in Laos. T rminus of
this pipeline in Laos is not certain. Photography during I Irevealed 25X1 D
traces cut through the Laotian jungle south to Muong Nong, u it is not
known whether POL pipeline has been laid along these traces.
On photography, an 0.6-nm segment of pipeline has been
identified in the North Vietnamese panhandle between the two major pipelines.
The extent of this newly identified pipeline is undetermined because of
insufficient low-level coverage of this area of North Vietnam.
