PROBABLE SS-20-ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT
KROLEVETS SSM LAUNCH POSITION 2, USSR
1. (S/D) SIGNIFICANCE: SS-20 EQUIPMENT HAS PROBABLY BEEN
DELIVERED TO THE KROLEVETS SSM COMPLEX. THE EQUIPMENT WILL
PROBABLY BE INCORPORATED INTO THE SS-20 REGIMENT AT THE MOBILE
MISSILE BASE WHICH IS NEARING COMPLETION AT THIS COMPLEX.
2. (S/D) REMARKS: AT LEAST THREE CAMOUFLAGE/NET-COVERED PROBABLE
SS-20- SSA OCIATED VEHICLES ARE IN THE OPERATIONS AREA OF
KROLEVETS SSM LAUNCH POSITION 2. IN ADDITION, CAMOUFLAGE
NETTING HAS BEEN SUSPENDED IN FRONT OF TWO OF THE MISSILE-READY
BUNKERS (ONE OFF GRAPHIC). KROLEVETS SSM LAUNCH POSITION 2 IS
A DEACTIVATED SS-5 LAUNCH SITE, WHICH HAS NOT PREVIOUSLY BEEN
ASSOCIATED WITH THE SS-20 MISSILE SYSTEM. SINCE NO EVIDENCE OF
MOBILE MISSILE BASE CONSTRUCTION IS OBSERVED AT THIS SITE, THE
SS-20 EQUIPMENT MAY BE PART OF A UNIT ASSOCIATED WITH KROLEVETS'
MOBILE IRBM BASE 1 APPROXIMATELY 5 NM 25X1
SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF 2.
(S/D) THIS ACTIVITY IS SIMILAR TO THAT OBSERVED AT OTHER
DEACTIVATED SSM FACILITIES WHERE SS-20 EQUIPMENT IS STORED,
WHILE NEARBY MOBILE IRBM BASES ARE BEING COMPLETED. SS-20
MOBILE BASE CONSTRUCTION WAS FIRST IDENTIFIED AT KROLEVETS
MOBILE IRBM BASE 1 MOBILE BASE 1 HAS NOT 25X1
YET BEEN ASSESSED TO BE OPERATIONAL, BUT IT IS NEARING
COMPLETION.
