(S) Kazan Airframe Plant B-387 is in the northern suburbs of Kazan in the western central portion of the USSR, approximately 400 nautical miles east of Moscow (Figure 1). The area surrounding the plant is gently rolling with elevations ranging from 76 to 106 meters. The plant is bounded on the north by the Kazan Northwest Heliport and by urban growth on the east side, with room for expansion to the south and west. The plant is served by all-weather road and rail. BASIC DESCRIPTION 5. (TSR) Kazan Airframe Plant B-387 consists of the main plant area and a separately secured MIL OKB (experimental design bureau) research and development area (Figure 2). The installation covers an area of 188.4 hectares and is 91.0 meters above sea level. Main Plant Area 6. (TSR) Of the 97 buildings at the installation, 80 are a part of the main plant area. Four of these 80 buildings are production related, 17 are direct support, and 59 are general-purpose support. The four production-related buildings include one subassembly building (item 21, Table 1 and Figure 3), one assembly building (item 75), one final assembly building (item 82), and one assembly/checkout building (item 85). These buildings contain approximately 97,937 square me- ters of floorspace. 7. (TSR) The direct support buildings include eight shop buildings (items 13, 19, 25, 33, 60, 63, 68, and 86), three engineering/shop buildings (items 28, 51, and 58), two shop/support build- ings (items 70 and 91), one shop/compressor building (item 73), one shipping container fabrication building (item 83), one probable weapons calibration building (item 93), and one administration/- engineering building (item 96). The direct support buildings contain approximately 21,019 square meters of plant floorspace. 8. (TSR) The general-purpose support buildings include 26 storage buildings (items 1, 6, 7, 11, 12, 14, 18, 22-24, 27, 29, 52-57, 64, 65, 69, 77-80, and 87), 17 support buildings (items 4, 9, 10, 15-17, 30, 59, 61, 62, 67, 81, 84, 89, 90, 94, and 95), and seven storage/support buildings (items 3, 5, 20, 31, 50, 66, and 72). Other support buildings include two pumping stations (items 26 and 92), a probable pumping station (item 74), a pump control building (item 76), a compres- sor building (item 71), a vehicle storage building (item 88), a rotor test stand control building (item 8), a fire station (item 2), and a security building (item 97). These general-purpose support buildings account for approximately 18,867 square meters of floorspace. Research and Development Area (MIL OKB) 9. (TSR) A separately-secured research and development area (Figure 2), which is a branch of the MIL 0KB, is south of and directly associated with the main plant area. Several of the 17 buildings included in this area (primarily the engineering/shop building and the laboratory/engi- neering building) are buildings which are normally associated with any design bureau. The engi- neering/shop building (item 45, Table 1 and Figure 3) contains a high-bay hangar section large enough to accommodate a medium helicopter, and the laboratory/engineering building (item 40) contains several small wind tunnels, probably the blow-down-to-atmosphere variety, and at least four sets of pressure bottles. Also in this area are 11 storage buildings (items 34-36, 38, 39, 41-44, 47, and 48), three storage/support buildings (items 32, 46, and 49), and one pumping station (item 37). The 17 buildings in the research and development area contain approximately 7,356 square meters of floorspace. 10. (TSR) The total building floorspace for Kazan Airframe Plant B-387, including both the main plant area and the research and development area with an addition (item 61b) under construction as of is approximately 145,179 square meters. Other Facilities 10 25X1 11. (TSR) In addition to the 97 buildings, the installation also contains two underground storage tanks (completed by 1964) which are in diameter and a POL facility which 25X1 contains 12 aboveground cylindrical POL tanks (Figure 3). The 12 POL tanks have a storage capacity of 546,596 liters. Adjacent to the rotor test stand control building (item 8) is a rotor test stand cage (Figure 3) which is0in diameter. There is a paved transshipment area and a 25X1 vehicle parking lot at the southern edge of the plant outside the fenceline (Figure 3). In addition, there are two banks of induced-draft cooling towers, one bank with five fans and one bank with three fans which were completed by July 1972 and June 1975, respectively. -2- Top Secret RCA-09/0016/79 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP79T01819A000100910001-4 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP79T01819A000100910001-4 IV'l JCL,I CL IIVI I Test and Flyaway Field 12. (TSR) On the north side of the plant is the test and flyaway field Kazan Northwest Heliport (Figures 2 and 3). The field includes a large concrete helipadin diameter, a short east/west 0 concrete runway in length, and 23 hardstands. The field also contains a large parking apron, a compass rose, and a probable electronics calibration facil- ity. Fourteen unnumbered small support buildings/sheds are interspersed throughout the parking area adjacent to the hardstands (Figure 3). Construction Chronology 13. (TSR) The earliest overhead imagery available for use in this report was acquired on At that time, an assembly/checkout building (item 85, Table 1 and Figure 3), a final assembly building (item 82), two shop buildings (items 60 and 86), and a laboratory/engi- neering building (item 40a) were observed complete. 14. (TSR) Between) the rotor test stand cage (Figure 3), a subassembly building (item 21), an engineering/shop building (item 58), a support building (item 4), and two storage buildings (items 24 and 35) were completed. By 28 additional buildings had been constructed and a part of the final assembly building (item 82) had been destroyed by fire or explosion. A rotor test stand control building (item 8), nine storage buildings (items 18, 22, 23, 27, 34, 42, 47, 48, and 69), five support buildings (items 10,15a, 62, 67, and 90), three storage/support buildings (items 20, 31a, and 72), three pumping stations (items 26, 37, and 92), one shop building (item 25), and an engineering/shop building (item 45a and b) were Top observed complete. Also constructed were a pump control building (item 76), a shipping container fabrication building (item 83), and three buildings adjacent to the shipping container fabrication building which were later razed in 1978 (Figure 3). 15. (TSR) By the plant comprised 30 buildings with a total floorspace of 65,301.2 square meters (excluding the three recently razed buildings). 16. (TSR) Between 1966 and 1970, construction activity was light. A runway was constructed (Figure 3) and repairs were made on the final assembly building (item 82, Table 1 and Figure 3). Two storage buildings items 43 and 77) and two support buildings (items 81 and 94) were also completed. Only f additional floorspace was constructed during this period. 17. (TSR) Between 1970 and 1973 construction activity increased significantly in anticipa- tion of accelerated HIP helicopter production, with production-related floorspace almost doubling. A large assembly building (item 75) and a shop building (item 19) were constructed. Fourteen storage buildings (items 1, 6, 7, 9, 53-57, 64, 65, 79, 80, and 87), a storage/support building (item 32), a shop/compressor building (item 73), a probable pumping station (item 74), a support building (item 89), and a security building (item 97) were also completed. In addition, a storage section (item 45c) was added to the engineering/shop building and a support section (item 31b) was added to a storage/support building, 18. facility. 3- Secret (TSR) Twenty-one new buildings and two building additions were constructed between adding a total of 53,577.3 square meters of floorspace to the RCA -09/0016/79 25X1 LJ/\ I 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP79T01819A000100910001-4 Table 1 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010105117: CIA-RDP79T01819A000100910001-4 lop secret HUFFI Construction Activity at Kazan Airframe Plant B -387 February 1960-March 1979 (Keyed to Figure 3) This table in its entirety is classified TOP SECRET RUFF " Dimensions Item Function.

Five storage buildings (items 11, 29, 38, 39, and 41), four support buildings (items 30, 59, 84, and 95), two engineering/shop buildings (items 28 and 51), two shop/support buildings (items 70 and 91), and one shop building (item 68) were constructed. Also completed were two storage/support buildings (items 46 and 49), a compressor building (item 71), and a fire station (item 2). A support section (item 15b) was added to a support building and a storage section (item 40b) was added to a laboratory/engineering building. 20. (TSR) The additional floorspace provided by these 18 buildings and two additions increased overall floorspace by 9,844.7 square meters. 21. (TSR) A moderate amount of construction took place between March 1976 and March 1979, the information cutoff date for this report. An administration/engineering building (item 96), three shop buildings (items 13, 33, and 63), six storage buildings (items 12, 14, 36, 44, 52, and 78), and four storage/support buildings (items 3, 5, 50, and 66) were constructed. Also completed were three support buildings (items 16, 17, and 61a), a vehicle storage building (item 88), and a probable weapons calibration building (item 93). In addition, several buildings were enlarged. An administration section (item 15c) was added to a support building, an administration/engineering section (item 40c) was added to a laboratory/engineering building, and an administration/engi- neering section (item 85c) and a final assembly section (85d) were added to an assembly/checkout building. A support section (item 61b) to a support building was still under construction as of 22. (TSR) A probable electronics calibration facility and two additional hardstands were completed in the heliport and parking area (Figure 3). 23. (TSR) The construction during this period added 15,720.1 square meters of floorspace to the facility and a total of 19 new buildings. Production Activity HOUND 24, (TSR) Helicopters have been produced at the Kazan Airframe Plant B-387 since late 1952 when initial production was begun on the Mi-4 (HOUND), a single-rotor, general-purpose helicopter powered by the ASh-82V engine. There are three production variants of the HOUND: the Mi-4 military version, the Mi-4P passenger version, and the Mi-4S agricultural version. Additionally, all versions can be fitted for amphibious operations. 25. 0 HOUND production at Kazan was probably limited to prototype and test models during most of 1952 and 1953. In 1954, production at Kazan began to increase from one a month to nine by the end of the year, with a cumulative total production of 39 helicopters. By the end of 1955, as many as 180 may have been produced; however, attache sightings of the plant indicated that only five to six aircraft were observed at any given time. By the end of 1956, production at Kazan increased to 25 aircraft per month and in 1957 increased to a peak of 30 per month.' 26. From 1958 through 1964, production remained fairly stable at 26 to 30 aircraft per month.2 Production at Kazan declined rapidly between 1965 and 1969, when it ceased completely because of the emergence and subsequent production of the newer Mi-8 (HIP C). A total of approximately 3,300 to 3,500 HOUND helicopters were produced before production ceased.3 HIP/HAZE 27. Several models and variants of the HIP helicopter are presently being produced at Kazan-HIP C, HAZE A, and HIP E/F. HIP A, the prototype Mi-8, was a single turboshaft-powered helicopter with a four-blade rotor which never went into series prod- uction. HIP B was a twin-engine craft with a four-blade rotor. Only a few HIP B were produced and these were probably converted to HIP C helicopters. The HIP C, which became the primary series production model, is a twin-turbine-powered helicopter with a five-bladed rotor. It utilizes two TV2-117A Isotov turboshaft engines mounted above the cabin. The HIP C is produced in three basic variations: a military model (Mi-8T), a passenger model (Mi-8P), and a deluxe model (Mi-8PS).4 Top Secret RCA-09/0016/79 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP79T01819A000100910001-4 25X1 15X1 25X1 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP79T01819A000100910001-4 Top Secret RUFF 28. (TSR) The Mi-14 (HAZE A) is the amphibious version of the HIP which has a rede- signed lower fuselage resembling a boat hull and sponsons protruding outward on the aft part of the fuselage (Figure 4). The HAZE A also has quadricycle retractable landing gear and the more powerful TV3-117 engine. The HIP E and F are variants of the HIP helicopter which are distingu- ishable by the addition of latticework ordnance racks mounted midfuselage and which resemble wings when canvas covered (Figures 5 and 6). The E model is configured with rails to carry four SWATTER ATGMs (antitank guided missiles) and the F model to carry six SAGGER ATGMs. 29. ~HIP C production at Kazan is estimated to have begun in 1962. Cumulative 25X1 production between 1963 and 1966 has been estimated to have been 40 (15 in 1966);5 however, analysis of imagery of December 1966 revealed that 37 HIP helicopters were in the plant area. This relatively large number would indicate either that production was somewhat greater than estimated in 1966 or that all but three of the HIP produced during the four-year period were still at the plant.

(TSR) Table 2 is an estimate of HIP/HAZE production between 1967 and 1978 at Kazan. Table 3 shows the average number of HIP/HAZE observed on imagery at Kazan during the same period. 31. Collateral information indicates that prototype conversion of HIP C to HAZE was begun by the MIL OKB branch at Kazan in 1971.6 HAZE A were identified on imagery of Kazan as early as It is estimated that series production of HAZE A was begun in 1974 with an annual production rate of five helicopters. Production increased to 20 in 1975, 25 in 1976, and 30 in 1977. The production rate for 1978 was estimated to be three per month through June.' Since May 1974, from one to five HAZE A have usually been observed at the plant. A high count of 12, however, was observed on indicating that an increase in production may have occurred. 32. I HIP E/F series production reportedly began in late 1976 or early 1977 at Kazan.' On and again on what may have been a HIP E/F prototype with probable latticework ordnance racks resembling wings was ob- served at Kazan. On the first series production of HIP E/F was observed (Figure 6). During 1977 and the early part of 1978 an average of five HIP E/F was observed. In the second half of 1978 the number observed decreased to one or two, and none have been observed during the first two months of 1979, which could indicate a slower production rate at Kazan. 25X1 25X1 Research, Development, and Testing 33. (TSR) The branch of the MIL OKB at the plant (Figures 2 and 3) is involved in the development and testing of MIL-designed helicopters. This branch was not identified until after 1971 and may not have been associated with MIL in the early 1960s. Overhead imagery of February 1960 revealed numerous fixed-wing aircraft in what is now the MIL OKB area. The branch has been associated with the HAZE A program (see paragraph 31) and with the testing of rotor systems. It also seems that the facility may have been associated with the HIP E/F program as early as 1972 (see paragraph 32). 34. 0 Recent photographically derived and collateral information indicates that the 25X1 MIL branch at Kazan is currently engaged in the development of a new helicopter.' Collateral sources report that the new helicopter is a medium-weight utility helicopter slightly smaller than the HIP. Observation of a small rotor system undergoing testing appears to substantiate the report. On imagery of a probable, new, two-bladed rotor system, in 25X1 diameter, was observed in the rotor test stand cage (Figure 7). The rotor diameter is 25X1 shorter than the rotor diameter of the HIP and does not closely resemble any presently 25X1 known Soviet rotor system. Security 35. (TSR) The entire installation is secured on all sides by double fences or a fence and a wall (Figure 2). In addition, the plant and MIL OKB research and development area are separ- ately secured (Figure 3).
