The slightly tapered appearance previously reported* is due to a framework that holds the two canisters together. (TSR) The SA-X-10 canisters at Sary-Shagan are carried on a modified SA-5 canister transporter (Figure 3), which can hold up to four canisters stacked in pairs. Two modified SA-5 canister transporters have been seen at Feodosiya since at least May 1975.0 25X1 one of the transporters was canvas covered and appeared to be carrying four 25X1 canisters stacked in pairs (Figure 4)--a mode identical to the one seen at Sary-Shagan. The canister portion of the transporte further suggesting that the canisters 25X1 are SA-X-10 canisters. (TSR) The missile components, the transporter, and the electronics equipment that was previously reported at Feodosiya* indicate that the SAM system at Feodosiya is probably the naval version of the SA-X-10 missile. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/06/22 :CIA-RDP78T05698A000100020012-2 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/06/22 :CIA-RDP78T05698A000100020012-2 Top Secret R U F F Volyoyrud?
