Open AI Summary

This document from the CIA's Stargate program provides information about a radio intercept/radar site and an associated airfield. The source describes the site as a cement bunker built into the side of a hill, with a pole on top that has a perforated metal plate and a three-bladed "radar" beneath it. The purpose of the site is to monitor activities or signals across the river, and it is manned by two or three men. The airfield, which is approximately 30 miles away, has been converted from civilian use to military and is used by single-engine jet aircraft. The aircraft at the airfield are described as MIG type, capable of carrying six rockets under each wing, and have markings of round concentric circles and a tail flash with red, white, and green colors.

 Target:
 1.   (S) Source identified a radio intercept/radar site
 at the coordinates noted above.   He also described the target
 area as hilly country with a river adjacent to the
 intercept/radar site.   The source described the site
 and associated it with an airfield approximately 30
 miles away (possibly west).
 2.  .(S)   Discribing the radio intercept/radar site,  the
 source indicated that there was a cement bunker built
 into the side of a hill overlooking the river.   On top
 of the bunker there was a pole which had a perforated-;
 metal plate at the very top and a three bladed "radar"
 beneath the perforated plate.   The source described the
 three blades as being similar to a helicopter's blades
 and noted that these blades rotated continuously.
 3.   (S)   Source indicated that the purpose of the
 radio intercept/radar site was to monitor activities or
 signals across the river.   Source also noted that the
 bunker was manned by two or three men.
 4.   (S)   The source also associated the intercept/radar
 site with an airfield which had been converted from
 civilian use to military.   Source indicated that single
 engine jet aircraft used this airfield.   He noted that
 the airfield was approximately 30 miles away from the

 intercept/radar site  (possibly to the west).
 5.   (S)   The airfield was described as being surrounded
 by heavy vegitation and used by single engine MIG type
 aircraft.   Aircraft had an air intake opening at the
 nose and were capable of carrying six rockets under
 each wing.   Markings were described as being round
 concentric circles and tail flash.   Colors were identified
 as red in the outer most circle, white in the second
 inner circle, and green in the center circle.   The tail
 flash was similar with red, white, and green running
 from left to right.
