REF DIAAP-I 841-66, OCT 1966.
IDENTIFICATION OF SAM SUPPORT FACILITIES IN CHINA IS COM-
PLICATED BY THE FACT THAT CLASSIC SOVIET TYPE CONFIGURATIONS HAVE
NOT BEEN FOUND, THOUGH SOME SUPPORT FUNCTIONS PROBABLY NEED TO
BE PERFORMED BY NEARBY FACILITIES. IN VI _ OF THE LACK OF CERTAIN
CLASSIC SIGNATURES, NPIC NAS REQUIRED, AS AN ESSENTIAL CRITERIA,
THE IDENTIFICATION OF SAM EQUIPMENT AT A SUSPECT CHINESE FACILITY
BEFORE IDENTIFYING IT AS A SAM SUPPORT FACILITY. CONSEQUENTLY,
NPIC DOES NOT CONCUR WITH THE IDENTIFICATION OF A SAM SUPPORT
FACILITY AT COORDINATES 3-33-48N/1 16-24-31E, PEICHING, CHINA.
THOUGH IT IS SUSPECTED THE PEICHING FACILITY IN QUESTION MAY HAVE
AT ONE TIME BEEN USED FOR STORAGE AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT OF THE
ADJACENT, NOW UNOCCUPIED, SAM SITE, SA-2 EQUIPMENT HAS NEWER BEEN
OBSERVED AT THE FACILITY.
