SUMMARY OF
INFORMATION:
The
target
is
a structure
close
to
a body
of
water.
It
is
very warm
in this
area,
with palm trees
and
a
beach.
There
are dolphins swimming
in
the
water.
It
is
a vacation
spot.
People come
here
to
see
the structure
and
to enjoy
themselves.
Makes
me think
of Disneyland,
Florida.
But
there
is
a
long,
dark,
deep
tunnel,
with
a
light
at
the
very end.
The structure
itself
is
tali,
has
a flat
top,
and gets
wider
toward
the
bottom.
It
has
a
very
sandy /grainy texture and
a. dark
color.
There
are
people
at
this
site.
They seem to
be dressed
in
old
fashioned
clothes
and hair,
like George
Washington.
There
is
a
curvy-like/snake-like
shape
at
the
site
and
flowers
everywhere
.
Going back
in
time,
I
would want
to
go
to
the
18th
Century.
There
is
a
lot
of action
and movement
around
this
structure,
I
couldn't
see
the structure
itself,
but
I
could
hear many people talking
and shouting
at
each
other.
Made
me
think
of
war
or
civil
war.
The purpose
of
the
structure
at
this
time
was
to house
or
to
hold.

The Leaning Tower
of Pisa
Also
known
as
the
Campile
or
the Bell Tower
of
a cathedral
of
Pisa
in Tuscany,
Italy.
It
is
part
of
a
fine
architectural
complex
that
includes
the
cathedral,
a baptistery
and
an
enclosed
composanto
or
cemetery,
all
sheathed
in
white
marble
and
archaded
in
Pisan-Romanesque
style.
The
tower
near
the
east
end
of
the
church
is
unusual
for
both
its
beauty
and
for
its
mechanics
of
equilibrium.
A
freestanding
cylinder,
it
consists
of
tiers
of
round
arched
archades.
A
spiral
staircase
ascends
to
the
interior.
From
the
top
of
the
tower
Galileo
is
said
to
have
conducted
his
experiments
in physics with
falling objects.
The
tower
was
begun
in
1174
by
an
unknown architect.
The
bell
tower
at
the
top
was
completed
about
1350.
During
construction,
an
uneven
settling
of
ground
caused
the
building
which
had
a
foundation
too
shallow
to
support
its
weight,
to
lean
toward
the
south.
Its
deviation
was
accidental
rather
than
intentional
as
some
scholars
thought.
Other
towers
in
the
city
are
similarly
though
less
strikingly affected.
Through
the
years
there
has
been
much
controversy
over
the
height
of
the
tower
and
the
amount
of
its
tilt.
It
is
now generally agreed
that
the
tower
is
179
feet high on
the northern
side
and
it deviates
nearly
ft
from the vertical.

(Tt is in a wide,’ open space, ‘in the twiddle of nowhere. Something seems to be coming out of the bottom of it. I can see a row of curved points and the colors blue, red, green, and yellow. There are at least four people in this structure. As I go inside, I feel very small. It has a large, open, tall ceiling. It smells old and musty. There are U~shapes all around me. It seems to be a circular or rounded structure, but long. There is some kind of slide that goes down. The people are located higher up. They are looking at the structure but they are also looking out of the structure through some type. of rounded @lass. Looking through this glass, I can see a bright, jagged, red light moving upwards. It is so bright and red that it is almost blue. This thing is very hot and there is a lot of pressure. The. people are awed by this. Some of the people seem to be visitors and some Chinese. The people seem to be looking at something big, curved, rounded and full of air or pressure. The pressure wants to come out of one end. It is almost like a balloon. It is of high intensity. The structure’s purpose is scientific, ("Hydro )}. The person in charge of Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00789R001200150010-2

T © a = al O Approved The SLAVA-Ciass guided missile cruiser. second KIROV-Class nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser; the addition of five other at- tack submarines; six major surface combat- ants; 46 fighter-bombers; over 40 helicopters, mostly ASW versions; and one long-range ASW BEAR F. Late in 1983, the third unit of the KIEV-Class carriers and the second unit of the IVAN ROGOV-Class amphibious as- sault ships departed for the Pacific Fleet via the Indian Ocean. Earlier, the SLAVA-Class cruiser—provisionally identified last the KRASINA-Class—made her maiden voy. age out of area from the Black Sea to the N orthern Fleet and back again. e aircraft carrier being built at Niko on the Black Sea is assessed to be nudes powered, and it is expected to have a fuli- length flight deck. Because it is likely that this ship is being designed to carry conven- tional take off and landing aircraft, instead of the KIEV’s vertical take off and landing type, it will probably be fitted with arresting gear and steam catapults like those on US aircraft carriers. This ship and her new aircraft will begin tests before the end of the decade. The new class of Soviet carriers will help to eliminate deficiencies in two areas. The first is air defense of their naval forces beyond the ranges of land-based fighter aircraft. Second- ly, the Soviets have an active interest in im- proving their distant area power projection capabilities to become more influential in the Third World. To achieve this goal, they need to be able to provide air protection for naval forces as well as to protect and assist ground forces operating ashore. Thus, it is expected that the aircraft on the new carrier will have both air-to-air and ground support mission capabilities. At Cam Ranh Bay, Vietnam and in the Dah- lak Archipelago off Ethiopia in the southern Red Sea, the Soviets have achieved signifi- Uhapter feate CIA-RDP96-00789R001200150009-4 Approved For Release 2001/03/07
