263rd Storage, Repair and Disposal of Communications Equipment Base
Identification
Open sources most consistently identify this record as the Belarusian Armed Forces 263rd Base for Storage, Repair and Disposal of Communications Equipment at military unit 01313 in Osipovichi, not simply as an unverified unit 33190 entry. A current unit-reference listing places the 263rd base in Osipovichi under v/ch 01313, and multiple procurement/address records place v/ch 01313 at 50 Kosmicheskaya Street, Osipovichi.

Number discrepancy
The metadata number 33190 should be treated cautiously. A mirror of a Belarus Council of Ministers register reproduced online lists v/ch 33190 and v/ch 01313 as separate entities with different taxpayer numbers, so I could not publicly confirm that 33190 is the same organization as the Osipovichi/Gomel network tied to v/ch 01313.

Site footprint
Public records indicate a two-node footprint. The main site is v/ch 01313 at 50 Kosmicheskaya Street, Osipovichi; a 2025 facilities-maintenance tender also places v/ch 01313 in military town No. 7 in Osipovichi. Separate 2025-2026 tenders refer to a branch of v/ch 01313 in Gomel and to fire-alarm modernization in military town No. 22 of v/ch 01313 in Gomel, which aligns with the second placemark at city level.

Function
The publicly corroborated mission is communications-equipment storage, repair, and disposal. An occupational-safety article discussing Belarusian military units names the 263rd base for storage, repair and disposal of communications equipment, and a technical publication states that the 263rd base modernized Belarusian R-140 radio stations by integrating newer communications equipment. In May 2022, Belarusian MoD reporting relayed by press announced an exhibition-sale of excess military equipment at the base of v/ch 01313 in Osipovichi, which is consistent with an excess-property and disposal role.

Recent activity
Recent procurement activity indicates the site remained active in 2025-2026 and sustained fixed infrastructure plus communications/IT-related work. Public tenders for v/ch 01313 covered optical cable and media converters, a gasoline power unit, alarm-system components, site electrical maintenance, CCTV services for both Osipovichi and Gomel facilities, and fire-alarm modernization for the Gomel branch.
