The Omsk ICBM Complex, situated north-
east of the city of Omsk, is in a generally level
area with clumps of trees and scattered brush
(Figure 1). The complex consists of a complex
support facility, a rail-to-road transfer point,
and one completed Type IIIB launch area. A
second launch area was started, but later aban-
doned. The completed launch site is oriented
on an azimuth of 5 degrees, plus or minus 5
degrees. Wide-radius turns are characteristic
of all curves and road junctions throughout the
complex.
The complex support facility, situated 6.4
nautical miles (nm) northeast of the city of

The complex support facility (55-04N 73-
31E) consists of a railhead and storage area,
an administration and housing area, and ahous-
ing area (Figures 2 and 3). It is 6.4 nm north-
east of the city of Omsk, is served by a rail
line from the Trans-Siberian Railroad, and
road served from Omsk.
The railhead and storage area, approxi-
mately 4,000 by 2,000 feet, contains three rail
spurs which range in length from 3,500 to 4,200
feet and range in separation from 350 to 400
feet. It also contains 20 large buildings, ap-
proximately 23 smaller buildings, a concrete
batch plant, several open storage areas, and two
vehicle/equipment parking areas.
The administration and housing area, ap-
proximately 1,900 by 1,400 feet, is probably
single fenced and contains 3 T-shaped buildings,
12 utility buildings, 14 barracks-type buildings,
and 9 smaller structures.
The housing area, approximately 800 by 500
feet, contains 11 barracks-type buildings, 3
large utility buildings, and 4 smaller structures.
On the east side of the railhead and storage
area is an unidentified area, possibly an open
storage area, which is encompassed by a road/25X1 D
firebreak. The road/firebreak was first ob-
served on photography of

Another unidentified area, about 300 by 200
feet, is approximately 1,000 feet south of the
housing area. This area contains one large
building, one small building, one large possible
semiburied tank, and ten buried or semiburied
tanks. No pipelines or power traces have been
observed in this area. This area is served by
a short spur from the rail line serving the
complex.

The rail-to-road transfer point (55-05N 73-
35E), approximately 3 nm northeast of the
complex support facility and 9 nm northeast of
the city of Omsk, is situated at the terminus of
the rail line serving the complex from Omsk
(Figure 4). At the transfer point, the road and
rail line are approximately 400 feet apart.
Within the transfer point are 9 buildings, 5
large and 4 small. Approximately 1, 700 feet east

launch site consists of a loop road, three launch
silos, a control bunker, a possible spray pond,
and an electronic facility. Each silo is served
on the east side by a short access road from
the loop road. The silo covers appear to be
domed and are approximately 60 feet square.
The electronic facility is centered behind and to
the left of the control bunker, and apparently
includes two ground scars about 1,250 feet long,
which bisect each other at right angles, and four
small earth-mounded buildings, one of which is
apparent at the end of each of the ground scars.
The site support facility consists of an
administration and housing section, and a hous-
ing section. The administration and housing
section, approximately 2,100 feet south of the
launch site, contains 5 large barracks-type
buildings, 3 administration buildings, and 12

smaller buildings. A shallow excavation is just
west of the administration and housing section
and a large pond is southwest of it. The housing
section, 4,700 feet southwest of the launch site,
contains 14 small buildings, 3 large and 10
small barracks-type buildings, 2 T-shaped
buildings, and 4 smaller buildings.
East-southeast of the RIM facility, across
the complex main road, is an unidentified area
consisting of an unimproved loop road and two
small buildings. No function has been determined
for this area, which was first observed on pho-

sites, including the excavation at Kozelsk ICBM
Complex, Launch Area C, which is abandoned. J

The lack of activity at this
area for the past indicates that
the site has been abandoned, and this site has
been removed from the ICBM order of battle.
