Skrunda-1 also known as Skrunda-2 is a ghost town and former Soviet radar station located 5 km to the north of Skrunda in Raņķi parish Latvia. It was the site of two Dnepr radar (NATO Hen House) radar installations constructed in the 1960s. A Daryal radar was being built there before the collapse of the Soviet Union. Skrunda was strategically important to the Soviet Union as its radars covered Western Europe.
