Approved For Release 2000/06/30: CIA-RDP78BO456OA004800010030-3 Approved F r UnNiiWim 004800010030-3 25X1 m This report provides a summary of photographic in- terpretation of selected COMOR targets and other targets in North Vietnam and Laos considered significant by the National Photographic Interpretation Center (NPIC). Each installation report includes target name, geo- graphic coordinates, WAC number, BE number (as ap- propriate), and NPIC number followed by the locator line, COMOR target number (as appropriate), and summary description suitable for the most recent mission included. The date, mission number, photo reference data, and limiting conditions are given for each mission with OB in- formation (as appropriate) listed directly above. Only AAA defenses considered to be integral com- ponents of an installation are reported. They are divided into three basic categories: light (ZPU-1, ZPU-2, ZPU- 4, 37mm), medium (57mm, 85mm), and heavy (100mm and larger). The term HMGAA (heavy machine gun anti- aircraft) indicates a weapon smaller than a ZPU-1. When a category cannot be determined, the site is listed as an AAA site and the number of guns indicated (Ex.: 6-gun AAA site, occupied/unoccupied). Targets are arranged 1) by country, 2) within the country by subject, 3) within the subject by WAG number, and 4) within the WAC number by geographic coordinates in ascending order. An appendix explaining column headings, photo ref- erence data, COMOR target numbers, and abbreviations for limiting conditions concludes the report.
