military unit 49494, part of the "Perimeter" automatic nuclear weapons control system.

Identification

Best open-source match is military unit 49494 in Dalneye Konstantinovo-5, Dalkonstantinovsky District, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. A Russian MoD order on RVSN federal-budget institutions lists v/ch 49494 at 606310, pgt Dalneye Konstantinovo-5, and a federal government order lists Dalneye-Konstantinovo-5 as a closed military town with housing stock. A 2023 state contract places an object in Dalneye Konstantinovo-5 at 55.716648, 43.859883, within a few hundred meters of the supplied coordinates, which is consistent with the record.

Assessed role

Official recruitment material published on a municipal government site states that v/ch 49494 was seeking officers specializing in the operation and repair of combat-control and communications equipment. Combined with the MoD listing of the unit under the Strategic Missile Forces, this supports assessing the site as an RVSN command/control-communications support and maintenance node rather than a publicly documented missile launch regiment.

Designation confidence

The specific title "1193rd Combat Command Center" is plausible but not confirmed in the official documents located for this review. I found that designation, and the associated "212th separate group" label, only in secondary RVSN reference material and registry-style aggregators tied to unit 49494 at Dalneye Konstantinovo-5; official sources reviewed here identify the site by military unit number and address instead.

On-site support infrastructure

Open institutional reporting indicates this is an inhabited garrison, not just a remote technical plot. A diocesan page states that a garrison church was built on the territory of the military unit in 2005, and that during a 2010 visit clergy were shown the barracks, dining hall, and RVSN equipment, with a meeting held in the garrison officers' club. The closed-military-town status also indicates permanent residential/support infrastructure and controlled access.

Geographic relevance and gaps

Open sources tie the closed military town to Surovatikha administratively/postally, and Surovatikha station in the same district is a freight-capable Gorky Railway station handling wagon-load cargo. That makes rail access the clearest visible logistics interface in open sources, although no official source reviewed here describes dedicated military sidings or storage for v/ch 49494. Separately, the supplied claim that this site is part of the "Perimeter" system is not publicly confirmed in the official or institutional sources found for this review.
