Official description

The Soviet Construction Yard is the most important structure in a base. With it, a commander has the capabilities of constructing all Soviet buildings and defenses. This makes the Construction Yard a high priority target for enemies, and must be defended as such in order to maintain any major presence on the battlefield. A Construction Yard provides a small amount of power as well.
