by this Treaty. Continuing construction and the
absence of credible alternative explanations have
reinforced our assessment of its purpose. Despite US
requests, no corrective action has been taken. This
and other ABM-related Soviet activites suggest that the
USSR may be preparing an ABM defense of its national
territory. (U)
2.
Mobility of ABM System Components
The US Government reaffirms the judgment of the
December, 1985, report that the evidence on Soviet
actions with respect to ABM component mobility is
ambiguous, but that the USSR's development and testing
of components of an ABM system, which apparently are
designed to be deployable at sites requiring relatively
limited special-purpose site preparation, represent a
potential violation of its legal obligation under the
ABM Treaty. This and other ABM-related Soviet
activities suggest that the USSR may be preparing an
ABM defense of its national territory. (U)
3.
Concurrent Testing of ABM and Air Defense Components
The US Government reaffirms the judgment made in the
December, 1985, report that the evidence of Soviet
actions with respect to concurrent operations is
insufficient fully to assess compliance with Soviet
obligations under the ABM Treaty. However, the Soviet
Union has conducted tests that have involved air
defense radars in ABM-related activites. The large
number, and consistency over time, of incidents of
concurrent operation of ABM and SAM components, plus
Soviet failure to accommodate fully US concerns,
indicate the USSR probably has violated the prohibition
on testing SAM components in an ABM mode. In several
cases, this may be highly probable. This and other
such Soviet ABM-related activities suggest that the
USSR may be preparing an ABM defense of its national
territory (U)
4.
ABM Capabilities of Modern SAM Systems
The US Government reaffirms the judgment made in the
December, 1985, report that the evidence of Soviet
actions with respect to SAM upgrade is insufficient to
assess compliance with the Soviet Union's obligations
under the ABM Treaty. However, this and other
ABM-related Soviet activities suggest that the USSR may
be preparing an, ABM defense of its national territory.
