Jane’s also disclosed that the base’s layout is similar to those in China. One launch pad is aligned on a bearing of approximately 301 degrees and when a DF-3 is fired with that bearing, it will head towards Israel. Another launch pad is oriented with a bearing of ten degrees, probably targeting Iran.
