Did you look at the picures as well from that town? There's not a building still standing. There's a bunch of small areas of buildings in the area that are nothing but rubble if you scan around and check out the pictures.

ok, so i went and payed my russian neighbors a visit, and the site that i posted with the bombed out buildings and radar buildings was once part of the soviet union's space program, that station was used to launch track and recover astronauts,as russian astronauts were recoverd on land. at the downfall of the soviet union in 1991, there were the obvious seperatists, and fighting ensued. the town and buildings were destroyed.

I downloaded google earth and checked it out. That town by the star would be a good place to play real lift COD.
