Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000400320001-2 SECRET/NOFORN SUMMARY OF INFORMATION SG1A Target Site a nuclear reproduction facility of considerable . = size, is located in a southern and isolated area of the Soviet Union. It also serves as a vast nuclear research center dedicated to the technical research and advancement of Soviet designs. The study of electro-optics is being pursued at this target site. Other areas of specific concern are advancements in "soft hardware", "splicing needles" and radiation. New methodology is being developed that will make "telemetry" as we have known it, virtually obsolete. An estimated 6,000 personnel are employed at this facility. A cadre of highly educated military personnel, accredited physicists, direct the overall activities at the target site. This target site is not very well hidden from sight. The presence and active participation of the "too many specialists" represents an exploitable security weakness. In the future, it will receive a great deal of unfavorable publicity. The Soviet Union is also developing the equivalent if its AWAC capabilities at the target site. The development of telescopic radiation dealing with highly minute particles in a highly complex manner is also ongoing at this target site. The site functions and operates much in the same manner as "Gardner/Gainer (phonetic)" does in the US. The principal target structures are bigger than normal; they are wide, square, clean. The presence of huge windows allows for a high degree of light infiltration into the buildings. SECRET/NOFORN Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000400320001-2
