This report is one in a series on Soviet Ground Force and Logistic
installations being prepared for a D1A/CIA Panel. The series is being
coordinated, published and disseminated by NPIC. The photographic
analysis is being performed by the NPIC Photographic Analysis Group,
the CIA Photographic Intelligence Division (NPIC), and the Production
Center 1Plc (DIA). The photographic analysis for this particular re-
port was performed by the Production Center 1PIc.
In the interest of uniformity, the titles and letter designators for
the facilities observed at these installations are identical with those
appearing in the project requirement. When a specific facility is not
observed both its title and letter designator are omitted in the report.
Titles and letter designators for the various facilities arc as
follows: (A) railroad service, (B) road service, (C) landing strips,
(D) administrative and troop housing areas, (Ii) storage areas, (h) am-
munition storage areas, (G) POL storage areas, (11) other buildings and
facilities, (J) equipment storage/maintenance areas, (K) athletic fields,
(L) small arms firing ranges, (M) driver training areas, (N) tank/
assault gun firing ranges, (P) flat trajectory firing ranges, (Q) artillery
emplacements (batteries), (R) infantry or combined arms field train-
ing areas or courses, (S) special training facilities, (T) unidentified

This 100-acre installation is 3 kilometers
(km) west of the center ofZhitomr, along a
road leading to Chudnov and just north of
the Teterev River (Figure 1). No rail service
is observed. Visible in the administrative,
housing, and general storage areas are a multi-
storied barracks, three multistoried admini-
stration buildings, 15 storage sheds, seven sup-
port buildings/sheds, and a POL shed probably
used for gasoline storage. In the vehicle
maintenance areas are 11 maintenance/vehicle
storage sheds, 18 maintenance/storage build-
ings, and an industrial-type building with a
monitor roof which is used for major main-
tenance and overhaul of vehicles (Figures 2
and 3).
The Air Target Chart covering this in-
stallation refers to it as an anti-tank training
unit; however, it is now believed that the major
function is vehicle maintenance and overhaul
for all wheeled vehicles/trucks in the Zhitomir
area.
