This site is meant primarily to capture the state of the Soviet military towards the end of the Cold War (the 1980s). Sources include maps and charts, Google Earth (LANDSAT) images, journals, and various sources on the Internet. The Department of Defense Tactical Pilotage Charts and Joint Operations Graphics, which have only been available to the public for a short number of years, have been of great help in this study, unfortunately an NGA directive intends to restrict them in October 2005 for nebulous "security reasons". The data is kept in a large spreadsheet and processed by custom-built software to generate these pages.
