This facility provided command and downlink for the US-KMO 2nd-generation missile warning satellite system (called "Prognoz" in unclassified documents). This site was intended to cover four GEO slots: 24W, 12E, 35E, 80E, and reserve satellites. Construction stopped at the end of the Cold War and two of six tracking dishes were left uncompleted.
