CANDID DEPLOYMENT
KRIVOY ROG AIRFIELD EAST. USSR
NPIC/PEG (1/83)
1. (SWN) SIGNIFICANCE: A PROBABLE FORCE UPGRADE FROM CUB TO
CANDID IS IN PROGRESS.
2. (SWN) REMARKS: THREE CANDID, WHICH ARE NOT NORMALLY AT THIS
AIRFIELD, ARE ON THE MAIN PARKING APRON. WHILE THESE AIRCRAFT
MAY BE IN TRANSIT, RECENT CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY SUGGESTS A
PERMANENT FORCE UPGRADE. FROM LATE OCTOBER THROUGH DECEMBER
1982, SIX CONCRETE BLAST DEFLECTORS WERE CONSTRUCTED ALONG THE
MAIN PARKING APRON AT THE SOUTH END OF THE AIRFIELD. GROUND
SCARRING (NOT ON GRAPHIC) FOR THREE ADDITIONAL BLAST DEFLECTORS
IS ALSO OBSERVED. SIMILAR ACTIVITY ACCOMPANIED THE UPGRADE
FROM CUB TO CANDID AT ZAPOROZHYE AIRFIELD EAST
DURING 1982. KRIVOY ROG AIRFIELD EAST IS THE NINTH SOVIET
AIRFIELD TO RECEIVE CANDID.
