US website: command and control tunnels captured in North Korea's Fung Creek nuclear test Site

Yonhap Seoul January 25 &http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/37954.html ">nbsp; by the U.S. Johns Hopkins University Korea-US Research institute operation of the North Korea trend analysis Site" 38North "25th, in the recent filming of North Korea's Salt mirror in the north-east of the Fung Creek nuclear test Site in the analysis of satellite photos of suspected nuclear tests in charge of command and control facilities."

The website points out that the "Command and Control Tunnel" (Command and controlling bunker) was found at about 150 metres north of the tunnel entrance, which was presumed to have carried out a nuclear test. It is speculated that the tunnels are equipped with nuclear facilities and test results monitoring equipment, as well as equipment to communicate with the Pyongyang command. Moreover, the tunnel could play a role as a refuge in a nuclear test where the impact was greater than expected.

The tunnel was put into construction after 2005 and, in 2009 photos, the 3 buses for staff aboard the nuclear test site could be presumed to be carrying out excavation work at the time. In a photograph taken last April, the tunnel entrance was rectified and the entrance to the tunnel was kept at a distance from the entrance to the nuclear test tunnels in order to cope with the unexpected impact. In addition, in the left side of the tunnel also found to set up ventilation systems and seismograph monitoring equipment such as buildings.

"38North" according to the traces of digging chisel, such as speculation, the tunnel covers an area of at least 92.9 square meters, if the new facilities for ventilation, the tunnel length of at least 50 meters. In a satellite photograph taken last December, a paved path was found in the west of the tunnel equipment, which may indicate that more people are travelling.

In the Fung Creek nuclear test Site, in addition to command and control of the tunnel, but also found in contact with the top leaders in Pyongyang, the Russian-produced wireless relay system "R404" and "R414." This is because the nuclear test site to accept orders from the Pyongyang leadership, the need for credible communications systems, and last summer's storm combined with technical deficiencies, the original ground communication line damaged, and therefore need a new communication system.
