Radar "Danube 3U"
In his today's review I would like to tell you about long-standing walk "over the Danube". The once-secret development of Soviet engineering genius is now relatively available, though still guarded by the military.
Danube-3U - station early warning defense system A-35M. Chief Designer - AN Musatov. Put into operation in 1978, along with adopting a system of A-35M. Built vChehove-7 near the railway platform Chernetskaya big ring of the Moscow Railway (Chekhov district, in the south of the Moscow Region).

1. When designing and building the station was taken into account the experience of the construction and operation of the station "Danube-3M", and applied a number of new technical solutions associated with significant technological advances in electronics that have occurred over the years that have passed since the development of the previous version. It is possible to increase the range and accuracy of the station, the reliability of its work. Structurally similar to the complex system of "Danube-3M". External difference was the change in antenna design (other design forming lens PAR) and their location - in contrast to the combined and directed strictly opposite antennas "Danube-3M" on the new stations are spaced approximately 150 m and rotated a few degrees. A new and more compact machinery and equipment allowed to significantly reduce the necessary volumes of process facilities. Introduced automatic control system operation and health of complex systems.
As many know, the Danube-3M (was under Kubinka) burned down, after which the antenna itself was demolished, and buildings - abandoned.
But what is happening on the Danube-3U me personally it is not clear: some say that everything works just happened modernization. Others argue that the system is closed, the area with the receiving antenna abandoned, and a transmission - acts as a residual.
I can tell only what happened to see with their own eyes.
It all started a long time ago, when I first saw towering above the forest and whopper ever think to look at it more closely ... in 2008 we came to the territory of the RF in order to assess the situation. The territory of the "Danube" is divided into two areas - the transmitting and receiving antennas.
2. Between these platforms are connected by road and the cable collector.
3. The cable collector cables addition, a wide housing laid particular waveguide (left)
On both sides of the doors on the ends kabelnik alarm drawdown which leads to a rather brisk military response.
4. So, in 2008, in addition to viewing the outside perimeters and descent kabelnik we did not look, but came already several times in summer and winter. But in 2009 we came to have a much more thorough ... The one area where the transmitting (radiating) antenna at the time of the inspection (and now) is an extremely lively area with a bunch of warriors, cameras and loud buzzing equipment, noise cooling systems (cooling towers ) and a number of other factors, extinguishing all thoughts about the penetration of nascent. And even if there could get through - like something dumb to drag your ass into possibly existing transmitter antenna. You could probably boil. But here in the reception area then there was peace and quiet in the buildings ... there was something between repair and cut into the metal on the street no one wandered, and the hole in the fence once harsh gaping invitingly.
5. It is an empty land, no guards, no sentinel.
6. Match the building - a ladder to the roof in stock, but solidly smeared with grease, so as not climbed any.
7. Between the building and the antenna roll fragments of Computing (?) Equipment.
8. Antennas abut on the number of "feet" in the profile of the entire structure resembles the symbol "lambda»
9. The surface of the antenna structure consists of two parts - a ribbed
10. Smooth (uh, probably great in the winter, you can move out on my ass)
11. Although the surface and bright, for cooling were provided hydrants. And maybe for firefighting.
12. To get into the antenna was not too easy, but still feasible. And here we are inside ...
13. Through numerous cracks inside the structure by the wind drives a lot of seeds, and then they try to grow - with almost no light.
14. Inside the antenna hidden away cradle for her service, and some junk.
15.
16. Domestic support fastened to concrete substrates in general it looks very safe.
17. Far away up the whole hulk
18.
19. From within the entire structure is covered with transitions and ladders, which can be moved between levels of an antenna
20. In addition to ladders, there is an elevator that moves along an inclined path
21.
22.
23. The elevator shaft, look up. Visible the door on floors
24. But the warm transition between the antenna and the building of the Computing Center. The door to the alarm, so do not touch it.
25.
26. Cable here very much, the whole antenna entangled them
27.
28.
29. The view of one of the rooms - they are identical
30. The antenna itself
31.
32.
33.
34. The door is oddly shaped
35.
36. We rise higher and higher
37.
38. The next level with the release of the elevator
39. The last transition over the precipice
40. And here we are under the roof.
41. Here live pigeons, very much. Therefore, all surfaces are extremely filthy. Pigeons have lived here for generations, and shitting in his own shit they die, and so round and round.
42. matched to the roof - pigeons crammed into the hole
43. creeps ...
44. Match the edge and ...
45. Here it is! For the sake of this frame here should rise
Hoping that no one has reacted to the panic of pigeons over the antenna, in a hurry to go down ... then quietly pass through the territory and find ourselves outside the perimeter. Such cases
P.S. Survey was conducted in 2008-2009, since then the situation could change in the RF.
It is known that recently there have detained a group of violators of the regime, then the guarded object greatly increased.
