SHIPYARD : ADMIRALTY SHIPYARD 194
LOCATION : LENINGRAD, USSR
GEO COORDS: 59-55N 030-17E
1. SOFIYA Class tanker alongside fitting-out quay (LQA approx 755').
2. Unidentified possible workshop (YR) or barracks ship (APL) moored along-
side quay (LOA approx 320').
This vessel is characterized by a long, straight hull with a rounded bow
and a stern in the form of a truncated arc. A superstructure, nearly the
fall width of the hull, runs at one level from a point near the stern to
the forward quarter of the hull at which point it steps down near the bow.
Also aresent on this vessel are two lifeboats positioned athwartships on
the superstructure amidships, and a. single mast centered. near the forward
one-third of the vessel. The hull of this vessel appears similar to that
of tho vessel moored outboard annotation 3 below). The entire vessel
is similar to one later seen at Gorkiy Shipyard 112, Gorkiy, USSR (56-22N
043-5-;E) (See annotation 18, Figure 1, CIA/PIR-77036).
Unidentified possible workshop (YR) or barracks ship (APL) (LOA approx
320').
The hall of this vessel is similar to the vessel indicated by annotation
2 aboie. This vessel differs from the one inboard in that it has a
superstructure that runs nearly the length of the hull at one level. A
small "house" surmounts this superstructure forward of amidships. A
",oal:ost" mast/kingpost straddles this house. This vessel is also
similar to one later seen at Gorkiy Shipyard 112 on (See
annotation 0. Figure 2, CIA/PIR-77036.)
4. Large floating crane alongside quay (approximate dimensions of platform
165' x 85').
5. BOLVA Class APL in slip (LOA approx
0
6. ZEYA Class YRSN - Nuclear Ship Support Barge (LOA approx
The l(,:ogth of this vessel was derived by scaling stereoscopically from
known lengths of vessels and previously derived dimensions for objects
on the ground. The LOA of this vessel was also measured by the Technical
Intel_.igence Division (NPIC) monoscopically and determined to be

Probable barge at head of fitting-out slip (LOA approx 300').
The hull of this vessel is characterized by long parallel sides with a
semi-rounded stern and a "squared-off" bow. This vessel has no super-
structure; however, along each side there are parallel skeletal-frame
sidewalls (sunlight can be seen passing throuk>;h these walls) that run
three-quarters the length of the hull. This vessel appears to be used
as a mobile storage platform and has been previously identified as a
floating dock on smaller scat Iphotoprraphy. It presently appears
to contain possible vertical and other unidentified objects.
Probable floating vertical screens are noted on this mission at both
Sudomekh and Zhdanov Shipyards, Leningrad. This vessel is similar to
the vessel seen at annotation 12 below.
8. DOBRYNYA NIKITICH Class Icebreaker in fitting-out slip (apparent LOA
approx 225').
9. ANDREY ZAKHAROV Class Fish Cannery Ship in fitting-out slip (LOA
approx 0.
10. Empty building way.
No evidence of new construction is visible on this building way. Al-
though the caisson appears to be closed, the end of the way is still
flooded with water.
11. Hull of large unidentified vessel under construction on building way
(major measurements were undetermined; however, the beam appears to be
roughly 100 feet at the after portion of ,..he hull).
12. Probable barge alongside quay serving possible POL storage area (LOA
approx 300').
The appearance of this vessel is similar to the one seen at annotation 7
above with the exception of the side walls - they appear to be solid
rather than open. Three (or possibly more) cylindrical objects, ranging
in approximate size from 25 feet to can be seen lying on their
transverse axes within the barge. Two of the objects appear to have
their tops covered, but it cannot be determined whether this covering is
permanent or temporary. One cylindrical object is not covered and the
interior portion can be seen. A single, long, dark object spans the
diameter within the cylinder. The function of these cylindrical objects
is unknown.
13. Two floating cranes.
