MISSION 4031
PREFACE
THIS IS THE THIRD OF FOUR OAK REPORTS FOR MISSION 4031
AND. PROVIDES INFORMATION ON THE HIGHEST PRIORITY COMMITTEE
ON OVERHEAD RECONNAISSANCE (COMDR) TARGETS OBSERVED ON THE
PHOTOGRAPHY. THE REMAINDER OF _THE COMOR TARGETS COVERED ON
THIS PHOTOGRAPHY WILL BE REPORTED IN A SERIES OF OAK SUPPLEMENTS.
TARGETS ARE ARRANGED IN THE OAK BY SUBJECT AND WITHIN EACH
SUBJECT BY COMOR TARGET NUMBER. TARGETS OF OPPORTUNITY
OBSERVED DURING THE OAK REPORTING. PERIOD ARE LISTED
NUMERICALLY UNDER THE APPROPRIATE SUBJECT AFTER THE LISTING
OF COMOR TARGETS. LOCATIONS OF TARGETS IN THIS REPORT
ARE INDICATED BY THE COUNTRY CODE PRECEDING THE COORDINATES.
SELECTED PHOTOGRAPHIC REFERENCES FOR EACH TARGET OBSERVED
AND REPORTED FOLLOW THE DESCRIPTION OF THE TARGET. PASS
NUMBERS, SUFFIXED WITH A FOR ASCENDING AND D FOR DESCENDING,
ARE LISTED FIRST, FOLLOWED BY FRAMES WHICH ARE INDICATED BY
THE FRAME NUMBER WITH AN INDEX NUMBER RUNNING CONSECUTIVELY
FROM THE BEGINNING OF EACH PASS -- 4/8 FOR EXAMPLE, MEANS FRAME 4,
INDEX 8. UNIVERSAL REFERENCE GRID COORDINATES FOR NEW TARGETS
ARE GIVEN IN PARENTHESIS AFTER THE INDEX NUMBER TO WHICH THEY
APPLY. THIS GRID IS IDENTIFIED AS UNIVERSAL GRID NO 1, FEB
64. SYMBOLS INDICATING CONDITIONS WHICH AFFECT THE APPEARANCE
OF THE TARGET ON THE PHOTOGRAPHY ARE -- C (CLEAR), SC
(SCATTERED CLOUD COVER), HC (HEAVY CLOUD COVER), H (HAZE),
CS (CLOUD SHADOW), S (SNOW), 0 (OBLIQUITY),-SD (SEMIDARKNESS),
D (DARKNESS), GC (GROUND COVER), CF (CAMOUFLAGE), AND GR
(GROUND RESOLUTION). COLOR COVERAGE IS DESIGNATED BY THE LETTER
C IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING FRAME NUMBERS.
INTERPRETABILITY OF THE PHOTOGRAPHY IS CATEGORIZED AS G
(GOOD), F (FAIR), OR P (POOR). THE EXTENT OF PHOTOGRAPHIC
COVERAGE::IS DENOTED BY THE SYMBOLS T (TOTAL) OR PT (PARTIAL).
THE MODE OF COVERAGE; IS INDICATED BY.ST (STEREO), PS (PARTIAL
STEREO), OR NS (NON-STEREO).
THE INITIAL SCAN OFTHE PHOTOGRAPHY IS ACCOMPLISHED IN A
SHORT TIME AND PRIOR TO FINAL REFINEMENT OF EPHEMERIS DATA.
CONSEQUENTLY, FUTURE DETAILED ANALYSIS MAY RESULT IN MINOR

MISSION 4031, 17-24'AUGUST 1966
HIGHLIGHTS
COMMENCING WITH THIS OAK, GRID COORDINATES WILL BE OMITTED FROM THE
PHOTO REFERENCE LINE ON KH-7 MISSIONS,-EXCEPT ON NEW TARGETS.
AS A RESULT OF'A STEREO MIRROR MALFUNCTION AFTER PASS 149 ALL
SUCCEEDING COVERAGE WAS IN A NON-STEREO MODE.
SOVIET OFFENSIVE MISSILE ACTIVITY
TWENTY-THREE SINGLE SILO SITES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED THUS FAR ON
THIS MISSION -- 1 TYPE ILIC AT DOMBAROVSKIY, 1 TYPE IIIC AT
KARTALY, 3 TYPE IIID AT KOSTROMA, 1 TYPE IIID AT OLOVYANNAYA, 5
TYPE IIID AT SVOBODNYY AND 12 TYPE HID AT.TATISHCHEVO.
AT THE KAPUSTIN YAR/VLADIMIROVKA..MISSILE TEST CENTER, THE SSM
FACILITIES AND THE AKHTUBINSK/VLADIMIROVKA AIRFIELD ARE COVERED
BY CLEAR, NON-STEREO PHOTOGRAPHY OF GOOD INTERPRETABILITY. A
MISSILE EXERCISE IS OBSERVED AT LAUNCH AREA IC AND 5C. CONSTRUCTION
CONTINUES AT LAUNCH SITE 4C1 AND: PROBABLE LAUNCH AREA 6C. PROBABLE
MISSILE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT WAS OBSERVED ON RAIL CARS IN THE PROBABLE
MISSILE ASSEMBLY AND CHECKOUT AREA. AN ASM-4 (KITCHEN) WAS
IDENTIFIED IN THE MISSILE STORAGE AND HANDLING AREA NEAR THE
AKHTUBINSK/VLADIMIROVKA AIRFIELD.
AT THE TYURATAM MISSILE TEST CENTER LAUNCH COMPLEX G, MODIFICATION
AND CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES AT LAUNCH AREAS G1-G2 AND G3-G4.
FOURTEEN, THEN 15 CYLINDRICAL OBJECTS, 65 FEET LONG, ARE POSITIONED
WITHIN THE FENCE LINE AT LAUNCH AREA G5-G6. THREE SIMILAR OBJECTS
ARE LOCATED, AT THE POSSIBLE COMPONENT CHECKOUT/HANDLING FACILITY.

MISSILES
TYURATAM MISSILE TEST CENTER UR 4538N. 06317E
NO NEW MISSILE FACILITIES IDENTIFIED ON PORTIONS OF THE
SEARCH AREA COVERED.
THREE VEHICLES/PIECES OF EQUIPMENT ARE PARKED WITHIN
THE LOOP ROAD JUST EAST OF THE RIGHT SILO. NUMEROUS
SMALL OBJECTS ARE ON OR NEAR THE HARDSTAND SURROUNDING
THE SILOS. THE SITE APPEARS TO BE UNCHANGED SINCE
LAUNCH AREA G1-G2 -- CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES. THE AREA
BETWEEN PADS G1 AND G2 IS IN. THE PROCESS OF BEING
EXCAVATED AT SEVERAL POINTS. OPEN DITCHING CONTAINING
CONDUIT IS OBSERVED, BUT IT CANNOT BE DETERMINED IF
THIS IS NEW CONSTRUCTION OR REEXCAVATION OF ORIGINAL
FACILITIES. A CYLINDER IS LOCATED IN FRONT
OF-THE SMALL EARTH-MOUNDED BUILDING ON THE WEST SIDE OF
THE READY BUILDING AT G1. THE GANTRIES ARE IN THEIR
USUAL POSITIONS AT THE REAR OF-.THE PADS, AND THE
POSSIBLE MISSILE/COMPONENTS FREQUENTLY SEEN ARE ON THE
RAILS IN FRONT OF THE READY BUILDINGS. THE BUILDING
UNDER CONSTRUCTION IN THE EXCAVATION FORWARD OF G1
APPEARS TO ENCOMPASS A CIRCULAR STRUCTURE WHICH IS
SLIGHTLY OFFSET FROM THE CENTER, TOWARD THE RAIL SPUR
APPROACHING FROM THE NW. THIS CIRCULAR STRUCTURE COULD
BE A PEDESTAL OR A SILO. THE BUILDING APPEARS-TO BE
COMPARTMENTED IN A MANNER SIMILAR TO THAT OBSERVED IN
THE HEADWORKS OF A TYPE IIIC SILO, BUT THE BUILDING AT
PRESENT IS SMALLER, AND RECTANGULAR RATHER THAN SQUARE.
A REVIEW OF EARLIER COVERAGES SHOWS NO EVIDENCE OF ,A
SILO CORING OR SILO CONSTRUCTION,-BUT THE SIMILARITY OF
APPEARANCE TO TYPE IIIC HEADWORKS AND THE CIRCULAR
STRUCTURE SUGGEST THAT THESE BUILDINGS MAY BE SILOS

LAUNCH AREA G3-G4 -- CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES. THE
DITCH, PREVIOUSLY REPORTED PARALLEL TO THE ORIENTATION
OF THE FENCE ACROSS THE REAR OF THE LAUNCH AREA,
CONTAINS CONDUIT WHICH ENTERS A LINEAR EARTH MOUND
PARALLEL TO THE GANTRY TRACKS.
THE DITCH PREVIOUSLY REPORTED EXTENDING EASTWARD FROM
PAD G3 NOW APPEARS.TO HAVE BEEN EXTENDED UNDERNEATH THE
PAD FOR A SHORT DISTANCE TO THE WEST. SIMILAR
CONSTRUCTION IS NOW APPARENT AT PAD G4 AND.THE
ALIGNMENT OF CONDUIT SEGMENTS SUGGEST. THAT A SIMILAR
DITCH WILL PROBABLY BE OPENED FROM G4 TO THE CENTER OF
THE LAUNCH AREA.
THE DITCH PREVIOUSLY REPORTED EXTENDING SOUTHWARD
TOWARD THE L-SHAPED ELECTRONIC FACILITY NOW ENTERS 2 OF
THE EARTH-MOUNDED BUILDINGS.
A STRUCTURE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION FORWARD.OF PAD G3,
ADJACENT TO THE DITCH WHICH.:EXTENDS NORTHEASTWARD
TOWARD THE FENCE LINE. ONE OF THE EARTH-MOUNDED TANKS
IN THE CENTER OF THE LAUNCH AREA HAS BEEN REMOVED. AT
PAD G4 THE ERECTING MECHANISM IS IN AN INCLINED
POSITION. THE GANTRIES ARE LOCATED IN THEIR USUAL
POSITION AT?THE REAR OF THE PADS.
LAUNCH AREA G5-G6 -- THE GANTRY IS LOCATED ON PAD
G6 ALONG WITH A CYLINDRICAL OBJECT OLONG AND A
VEHICLE/PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. A PROBABLE MISSILE
TRANSPORTER AND A 4-LEGGED APPARATUS WITH A RING NEAR
ITS TOP ARE ON PAD G5. FOUR VEHICLES/PIECES OF
EQUIPMENT ARE LOCATED IN THE SW CORNER OF-.THE LAUNCH
AREAAND 4 OTHERS ARE LOCATED ALONG THE EASTERN FENCE
LINE.
FOURTEEN CYLINDERS APPROXIMATELY LONG ARE
POSITIONED ALONG THE EAST FENCE L . ONE OF.THESE IS
LIGHT TONED AND APPEARS TO BE SMOOTH AND REGULARLY
SHAPED. THE OTHER 13 HAVE A DARK MOTTLED APPEARANCE
AND MAY BE SLIGHTLY DISTORTED.
~- NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGE SINCE PASS OBSERVED AT
PAD G6. AT PAD G5, 2 LONG AND 2 SHORTER
VEHICLES/PIECES OF EQUIPMENT ARE LOCATED ON THE PAD. IN
ADDITION TO THE 4 LEGGED APPARATUS. FIVE
VEHICLES/PIECES OF EQUIPMENT ARE LOCATED IN THE SW
CORNER OF THE LAUNCH AREA, 7 ARE LOCATED IN THE NE
CORNER OF.THE LAUNCH AREA, AND.15 CYLINDERS ARE
POSITIONED ALONG'THE EASTERN FENCE LINE.
NO NEW CONSTRUCTION, CHANGES IN FACILITIES, OR
PREVIOUSLY UNREPORTED FEATURES-OBSERVED.

VARIOUS POINTS IN THE SUPPORT FACILITY BUT NO UNUSUAL
CARS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED.
