MILITARY STORAGE SITE NEAR UZHGOROD, USSR
25X1A
A military storage site (BE No and desig-
nation: Uzhgorod Ammunition Depot
Dravce) is located in a wooded area 3 nautical
miles (nm) southeast of Uzhgorod, USSR, and 7
nm east of the Czechoslovakian border at
coordinates 48-35N 22-22E (Figure 1). The
site is approximately 3,500 feet square and is
rail served.
The storage area contains 20 storage build-
ings, 15 of which evidence some form of blast
protection. Four types of storage buildings
are discernible at the site; these have been
designated types A, B, C, and D (Figures 2
and 3).
Type A. Two revetted, gable-roofed build-
ings are 165 by 50 feet and have five evenly
spaced ventilators along the peak of the roof.
The total roof coverage for these two buildings
is 16,500 square feet.
Type B. Two semiburied buildings have
drive-in entrances at one end. One building is
served by a loop road, and the other is located
near the terminus of a rail spur. Ample turning
space for motor vehicles is available in front
of each building. One of these buildings is
protected on two sides by a blast wall. The
total roof coverage of these two buildings is
30,400 square feet.
Type C. Fourteen buildings are 95 by
50 feet. Eleven of these are revetted. The

number and uniformity of these buildings suggest
normal explosives storage. The total roof
coverage of these buildings is 66,500 square
feet.
Type D. One gable-roofed building is 115
by 65 feet and has two small structures on the
roof which could house ventilation or environ-

mental control devices. This building has no
blast protection, but it is separately secured by
a fence and a checkpoint. A concrete pad, 100
feet square, is in front of this building, and a
probable hoist is near the surfaced driveway
to the building. The total roof coverage of this
building is 7,475 square feet.
There is a wall along the south side of the
site and a double fence along the east and
west sides. Part of the fence alignment along
the north side is indistinct.
An administration and housing area is lo-
cated on the south side of the site and consists
of several buildings for administration and/or
housing, a heating plant, and two vehicle sheds.
Approximately 80 vehicles are parked at
this installation; however, the absence of track
activity around them suggests that most of these
are in storage. Two probable transporters for
small missiles are near the end of the rail
spur in front of one of the semiburied, drive-in
buildings.
None of the storage buildings is directly
rail served. All materials must be transport-
ed either entirely by road or transferred from
the rail line to the storage buildings by road.
Fifty-three large vans which were observed
near the Uzhgorod Airfield could be used to
transport materials to the storage area.
A military training area is located 2 nm
north of the storage area; however, the only
direct connection between these two installations
is a substandard road. The lack of good road
service between the training area and the storage
site lessens the possibility of any significant
affiliation.
An MRBM site is located 5 nm southwest
of Uzhgorod.
