Interesting. We saw something similar to this last month on our RV trip through Wyoming. There are a bunch of ICBM silos in that area, and we toured a underground missile control center, that controlled like 14 different silos. Pretty impressive technology, for something built in the 1960’s.

looks like a R-1051/URR radio receiver in the lower pic.
