Circular test area

Circular test area


Dunhuang, China (CN)
This facility consists of a circular area 300 meters in diameter. In imagery of 2005-11-03 and 2006-09-18 four fighter aircraft were present near the center of the facility. On 2007-03-25 only three aircraft were present. In addition to the aircraft, there are several small rectangular
structures near the center of the array, numerous concentrically-arranged dark markings, radial lines of small mound-like objects mostly on the south side of the circular area, and what appears to be a lattice-work mast or tower outside the area on the south.

No craters or other signs of weapons impact are apparent in the available images.
