How to Enter Duga Base

Entrance Location

The entire region of Duga appears to be one big base with a hostile paramilitary patrol that will shoot on sight if you go near the wall. The entrance to the old desolate city can be found on the south side. Once inside, all you'll see are ruins of the tragedy of Chornobyl.

Complete Assault on the Duga

If you progress the main story, you will eventually have to commit an assault on the Duga, on a mission of the same name. Choices made in prior main quests will determine which faction you will side with in the assault. Different factions will allow you to enter through different entrances. If you try to go through the underground bunker outside the main mission, it will be sealed underground.
