Other Names: Mansour Factory, Al'Ez State Establishment; Mansour Solar Cell Evaporation Department Location: Kadhimiyah section, Baghdad, approximately 10km NW of city center Subordinate to: Military Industrialization Commission Primary Function: Silicon semi-conductor production
Description: This is a small site located along the banks of the Tigris. Mansour produced semi-conductors and solar cell wafers; it also contains a purified water plant. Of particular interest to inspectors was the clean room technology on-site, due to its potential use in inertial instrument fabrication/assembly. Mansour was never specifically associated with Iraq's missile programs, but their expertise in the clean room area was drawn upon my missile engineers.
Key Sources: UN Inspection Data.
