I was looking at Kalingrad and found this image and believe it might be a possible Russian missile site. Here is the link: https://yandex.com/maps/?ll=19.987170%2 ... z=18&l=sat
Can anyone else either confirm or see anything different?

I'm not sure what an Iskander missile launch site is going to going to look like, so I can't confirm, but something is definitely there.
The release of atomic energy has not created a new problem. It has merely made more urgent the necessity of solving an existing one.

The one on the looks like the correct shape to be an iskander launcher, but it has the shape of a fuel truck with a trailer. The other four are too long and thin, they look like semi trucks (lorries). Not to mention the imagery is 3 years old.

The Yandex photo appears to be from 2012, according to the bottom bar. Nothing on Wikimapia about it- so I'm not sure.
However, in the same area, there is something there that I'm not quite sure of, found via TerraServer. Photo is from June 12, 2016. Hard to tell what it is.

They're from probably less than a mile south of the same area. Like I said, I'm not sure what these are- they could be anything, for all I know.TonyG wrote:Are you sure the pictures are from the same area. There is a river in the other picture.
