I read this yesterday one poster commenting on the 3 images was this:

quote:
These aren't mysterious. The first image is a tank/urban training area. The US, Britain France all have these. It is to train artillery and tanks etc how to manoeuvre in tight urban settings without running over people and wrecking hardware. .
The second image is an ballistics damage range. Note the objects in concentric rings around the middle. You would detonate an explosive in the middle and assess how much damage objects absorbed at different distances with different payloads. note: the old Migs are placed at differing angles quite close.
The last one just looks like a regular testing range--the sort you see around the world.
