U.S. Said Tracking Soviet Missile Tests Washington HP The United States has been tracking Russian missile tests for more than two years with the aid of powerful radar equipment set up in Turkey, Aviation Week magazine reports. The authoritative trade pub lication reports the radar show ed that the Russians have per fected an intermediate range ballistic missile (IRBM) and have started to turn them out in pro duction. . It also said the radar disclosed that the Russian ICBMs still are ing intercontinental ballistics missiles last summer. It said the radar proved that eight red ICBM's were tested in June, July and August. The radar indicated, however, that the Rusisan ICBMs still are in the development slage, the aviation magazine said in an article published Sunday. The time when the Soviets will have these missiles in pro duction and capable of opera tion is "still two or three years distant," it said.
