Pluton is a system of deep space communications and a planetary radar. It was built near Yevpatoria in 1960, and consists of at at least three antennas. Three of them are of the ADU-1000 design, an assembly of eight mirrors, each with diameter of 16 meters. At the North station, two receiver antennas were built, and a transmitter was constructed 8.5 kilometers away at the South station.. Each receiving dish has a Cassegrain system with subreflectors mounted on quadrapods in front of the dishes. The dishes were placed on two hull of diesel submarines, welded together and laid down on the railway bridge trusses. The antennas of ADU-1000 were mounted on steerable frames constructed from battleship gun turrets and railway bridge trusses.
