The plant was covered by TALENT photo- graphy of July 1959, but cloud cover on this photography precludes its use for comparison with the KEYHOLE photography. During World War II and in the postwar period, the installation produced rifles, AA guns, machine guns, and gun barrels. 2/ This plant (Figure 2), as other - 5 6 7 armament plants 3/, has a good basis for the development and production of guided missiles.

LOCA TION MAP The photography does show two components that could be connected with missile production: the high-bay production building (item 9), and the probable earthen revetment and building (item 17). The plant has a total ground area of approximately 5,500,000 square feet and a total usable floor space of approximately 1,033,600 square feet.
