MEMORANDUM TO GENERAL BLEYMAIER 

SUBJECT: Intelligence Targets for MOL Crew Training 

During the briefing on the crew training program given 

by the Systems Office in November 1968, we agreed that the 

 MOL astronauts should begin to train and familiarize themselves 

 on intelligence targets likely to be covered by MOL in the 

 1971-73 time period. With regard to the installations and 

 complexes to be studied initially, I stated that I would 

 have a list of 25-50 potential DORIAN targets prepared for 

 your use in gathering mission training material. Such a list 

is attached, along with certain explanatory material that shOuld 

 be of assistance to the training people. 

The target list may appear at first to be too large for 

 the crew time and effort available to mission training at 

 this time. However, as the attached paper explains, the list 

has been reduced to about the minimum that still conforms to 

 the guidelines used to prepare it. In any event, selected 

 targets from the list can be used as crew availability for 

 mission training permits. The attached paper recommends 

certain targets for this purpose.

INTELLIGENCE TARGET LIST 

For 

CREW MISSION TRAINING 

This paper explains the rationale for selection of targets 

included an the attached list, provides a summary by target 

types and categories, and compares the list with the MOL 608 

Target Model and the COMIREX target deck for KH-8 operations. 

Rationale. 

Targets were selected in accordance with the following 

guidelines: 

• The total list should contain 25 to 50 targets. 

- Each target, installation or complex should be of 

a type against which the DORIAN system would be employed. That 

is, the targets should be sources of technical intelligence 

rather than order of battle (deployed operational sites, airfields and barracks). 

- Each target should be of a permanent nature with 

near certainty that it will be equally or more important when 

covered by the DORIAN system. 

- The list should include targets from all of the 

COMIREX target categories. 

- The list should include a substantial number of 

targets from the MOL 608 Target Model sample. These targets 

have been reviewed by FTD, and have DORIAN aiming points 

assigned. 

- Target areas or complexes with many individual 

targets (e.g., Tyuratam, Sary Shagan, etc.) are to be listed 

only once. The single entry then includes all separate targets 

noted by suffix letters in the COMIREX target list.

- As many targets as possible are to be items 

that have carried high priorities on recent KH-8 missions. 

Summary. 

The list contains a total of 61 installations, some of 

which are composed of a ,number of individual targets (e.g., 

Tyuratam, Plesetsk, Sary Shagan, and Kapustin Yar). Fiftythree of the installations are in the Soviet Union (country 

code UR), and eight are in Communist China (country code CH). 

The list includes 35 targets which are also contained in the 

MOL 608 Target Model sample. Twenty-seven of the items on 

the list were of highest priority (Priority 0 or 1) on four 

of the most recent KH-8 missions. 

The number of installations on the list by target types: 

- Missiles 33 

- Aircraft 7 

• Nuclear Energy 7 

• Naval 2 

• BW/CW 3 

- Electronics 5 

• Ground Forces 1 

• Urban/Industry 1

Comparison With Model 608 and COMIREX.
