Old talk[edit]

I found a whole load of info on the missile base at Dombarovsky at the site linkled below. As I'm not sure how to put references onto the site (I usually confine myself to small edits of grammar and suchlike) so if anyone could please help me to link the following page to the Dombarovsky article, I'd be eternally grateful! http://www.russianspaceweb.com/dombarovskiy.html Andyana 22:34, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. It's linked. Buckshot06 09:49, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Location of the silos[edit]

Until I removed it today, the article claimed the R-36 silos were at a single location, 50°45′59″N 59°32′40″E / 50.76639°N 59.54444°E / 50.76639; 59.54444, a location very close to Dombarovsky village itself. There's nothing there, and the location immediately SW of it (even closer to town) appears to be a radar/comms radome cluster. It's certainly not a buried ICBM silo, and nothing like Russian Space Web's description of individual silos strung out over a wide range. That location is so insanely close to the town that, if a rocket failed on launch, the explosion would destroy the entire town. This news broadcast of the 2010 launch shows the actual launch site - as you'd expect, it's a small number of structures out on the steppe, far from anything. I can't find a reliable site map (Kosmotras only gives maps for the integration site, not the launch area), and we have to resist the temptation to stare at Google Earth images and imagine we can obtain encyclopedic info just from that. Without reliable sources as to the actual location of the silos, which we don't have, we should simply say nothing. -- Finlay McWalterჷTalk 14:08, 22 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
