 place with historical importance, missile, invisible, closed / former military

Additional sets of four Launch Pads are at 53°10'3"N 13°16'46"E (Fürstenberg, just next to the “Kernwaffendepot Himmelpfort”) and at 53°7'14"N 13°22'9"E. The interesting thing about the launch pads is that they are configured for R-12 (SS-4 Sandal) Nuclear Missiles – a missile with twice the range of the R-5M.

Pix to come.
