In response to your requirement dated 13 January 196+ an analysis of the possible AMM associated electronic facilities was performed. Also a s=earch for any additional sites within a 10 nautical mile radius of 60-17N 29-53E was.accomplished. 2. A search of the area designated above revealed a similar site at 6o-15N 29-44E A map of the Leningrad area (Figure 1) shows the locations of the four sites and the search area. Northeast site to: NW - 263- 00 SSE - 199-30 SW - 243-45 Southwest site to: Nu - 10-00 NE - 63-45 ssE - 110-45 Note:. All bearings are measured from true north and given to the nearest 15 minutes. ./.?

Facilities, Leningrad, USSR M/EB 164/61+ The enclosed drawings are tracings made from unrectified photography; therefore, they probably contain some distortions. The north arrows were derived from 1:200,000 scale map sheets and are plotted as accurately as possible using these maps. The vegetation patterns within each of the sites has been deliberately omitted(except for the northwest site). All measure- ments were performed by the photo interpreter. The sizes of buildings in- dicated on the. enclosed drawings differ from those shown in NPIC/R-135/62, Figures 16 and 18. Assuming'that the dimensions in the formal report are correct, all dimensions in this memorandum should be increased by 12 percent. 25X1 D Site Descriptions: Southwest Site Figure. 2): a.

"Humped" structure or building measuring 270.by 100 feet overall. This b.11ding is probably earth mounded and appears quite similar to the sketchy (Figure 17, ITPIC/R-135/62). The end opposite the "hump" appears to be drive- through. f-. Two (2) buildings measuring 85 by 1+0 feet. g. Two (2) buildings measuring 60 by 35 feet. h. Building measuring 30 by 25 feet.

"Humped" structure or building measuring 225 by 1?O. This building is either earth mounded or camouflaged. It has a drive-through section across the east end..served by narrow, relatively tight, radius turns. The tall portion of this building seems to have a kind of three-sided (trihedron) effect as.

Unidentified object or structure. - 1. General. This site is not situated in a'heavily wooded area as are the other three. sites and no fence line could be identified. The lack of trees throughout the site would eliminate the need for, towers for equipment.
