ICBM COMPLEX, PERM, USSR
The Perm ICBM Complex is situated 18.5
nni south of Perm and 25 nm northwest of
Kungur. It is in a generally wooded area,
having an elevation range of 700-1,235 feet.
The complex consists of a complex support
facility, a rail-to-road transfer point, and
6 launch areas: 3 Type IIB, 2 Type IID, and
one Type IIIA. The five Type II launch sites
are oriented on an azimuth of 315 degrees
plus or minus 5 degrees and the Type III site
on an azimuth of 10 degrees plus or minus
5 degrees.
Earth scarring for construction of the com-
plex support facility and the transfer point was
observed as early as
_ The complex cannot be negated. Subse-
quent missions revealed one launch area in_
Four SA-2 SAM sites have been identified
around the complex:

The complex support facility (57-42N 56-
19E) is 18.6 nm south of Perm, at the eastern
end of the complex. It is rail served by a spur
from the Perm-Kungur rail line and road served
from the Perm-Kungur highway. It consists of
a railhead and storage area, two administration
and housing areas, and a probable motor pool
(Figures 2, 3, and 4).
The railhead and storage area, approxi-
mately 5,000 by 2,500 feet, is served by four
spurs branching from the main spur off the
Perm-Kungur rail line. The spurs range from
about 2,225 feet to 3,250 feet in length and from
about 105 feet to 545 feet in separation. The main
spur, which extends beyond the complex support
facility, is approximately 4 nm long. 1 he
railhead and storage area is heavily scarred and
contains 23 buildings of various sizes and 2
batch plants. One administration and housing
area, adjacent to the northern side of the rail-
head and storage area, contains approximately
65 buildings of various sizes, including 35
barracks type. A road extends 1.9 nm due north
from the railhead and storage area, through
the administration and housing area to the
second administration and housing area, which
contains at least 223 buildings, including about
61 barracks type and 4 U-shaped.
Between the two administration and housing
areas are the probable motor pool area, which
contains at least 16 buildings of various sizes;
a power trace; and the Yug River.
The rail-to-road transfer point (57-42N
56-17E) is approximately 3,000 feet southwest
of the railhead and storage area, near the
terminus of the spur that extends west from
the complex support facility (Figure 5). There
