A former missile base containing two main areas. The Integrated Fire Control has been demolished except for the "Pacman" clamshell radar units, which are slowly falling apart, hence the nickname. The launch facility contains a few buildings and two large bunkers whose lower levels have been sealed off with steel plates.
