Skrunda-1 Hen-House over-the-horizon radar site


Raņķi, Latvia (LV)
Skrunda-1 is a ghost town located 5 km to the north of Skrunda, in Latvia. It was the site of two Hen House radar installations constructed in the 1960s. The 60-meter structure that housed the radar units was one of the most important Soviet early warning radar stations for listening to objects in space and for tracking possible incoming ICBMs.
