Source 079 described the target
as consisting of
long,
tubular,
light-colored,
silver objects stored and assembled
In
a round yet squared—off structure that resembled
a research
laboratory with sterile atmosphere.
See sketch at TAB
A.
Doors
from the east wing of
the structure give access to the objects;
the objects
(TAB
B)
are located from the top of the circle
of the
structure and down to about three quarters
of the
length
of
the
structure.
The objects were
identified as upgraded and updated
versions
of
the Soviet SS17
(and
possibly SS— 19)
Intercontinental
Ballistic Missiles
(ICBM's).
The missiles are
currently located
in the Middle East,
specifically
in
the Peoples
Democratic Republic
of Yemen
(Yemen —Aden)
where they are being
tested.
Anticipated completion date for this project was
indicated as either November
1988
or November
1989.
The
letters
’’QRSTU” or
”QRXTU” were related to this type
of missile and the
name
’’Dommer”
(phonetic)
appeared related
to the principal
Soviet
technical,
industrial
supplier
(of parts).
The project
represents
an upgrade
of
a Soviet nuclear missile system that
originated
in the early
1970 's.

Source 003 perceived the target area as comprised
of
a group
of structures with interspersed antenna dishes
resembling microwave antenna dishes.

target structure
itself contained gleaming,
chrome-appearing,
curving metal
that was
at once rounded and
long.
The notions
of
detailed,
complex,
micro-scale assembly of micro-segments
appeared dominant.
Activities related
to this structure
involved
the practical
application and functioning
of prototype machine
and equipment operating
in
a horizontal
position from a
test
bed” atmosphere.
The viewer
was reminded
of complex device
requiring the precision and attention
to detail
normally reserved
for
the detonation
of
a nuclear device.
Technicians have
to
sometimes operate by feel
rather than by sight within
requirements
of
“very tight tolerances.

According to Source 018,
the target area evoked
strong
impressions
of
missi le—1 ike silhouettes and shor
,
so
structures
in the distance.
The main
(target)
structure
consisted
of
a dark room connected to other rooms with work
tables,
desks,
and work areas with rags and
rods.
The activity
at the target structure centered on
a
large group
of
long,
round
metallic things
of
a dull,
greenish color and appeared concerned
to the concept
of
"adding to” rather
than
initiating
(something
new).
While viewing the site and attempting to determine
the
nature of
its activity,
Source 018 experienced
a strong and
repeated experience that he associated with the odor
o
oil
used
in the direction-sensing potentiometer
of
the old Nike
Ajax and Nike Hercules
(guided missile systems)” firing,
control
computers.
Viewer 018 noted that firing control
computers used
variable potentiometers
in
lieu
of digital
components.

According to Source
Oil,
the target
is
a
long,
rectangular structure with which vertical
movement
is associated
See sketch at TAB
D.
The notion of
a rocket,
a space object,
re
entry vehicle and a flame-like blast
is associated with the
structure.
The
incongruous presence
of glowing green walls
branching out
in an arc and causing an
irregular star-like
pattern appeared to be
the end result
of
this technical
R&D
effort
.
