[1]TENCAP (TACTICAL EXPLOITATION OF NATIONAL CAPABILITIES) Site
as sup-part of the [2]Imagery Intelligence (IMINT).

Very suspicious area. Multiple fenced and at each corner of the inner fence a mast with 3 Cameras. Big Sattelite(?) Dish.

In the past Nike Missles had been stationed in the forest south of the site. In the
high of the "cold war" conflict with UDSSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) Nike Hercules Missles had been equipped with nuclear warheads.
[3]Warhead nuclear: W31 nuclear 2 kt (M-97) 20 kt (M-22) 40 kt (M-23)

Maybe this site also collects data or relays data for the Echelon Programm.
