The acquisition radar operator was to the left of the BCO and the computer operator was on the right. [citation needed] Separate stations at the "target radar control console" and "missile radar control console" were also used. The later Anti Tactical Ballistic Missile (ATBM) version of the battery control console was slightly different.
The Department of Defense sent a MiTEx spacecraft to inspect DSP 23 sometime in 2008. [7] Another DSP satellite was lost in 1999, DSP-19, after its Inertial Upper Stage failed following launch from a Titan 4B booster. [8] DSP-19 was a USAF Defense Support Program missile early warning satellite equipped with an infrared telescope to detect ...

Coverage of the original PAVE PAWS and BMEWS systems, later upgraded to SSPARS and eventually to UEWR BMEWS solid-state phased-array radar at RAF Fylingdales. The Solid State Phased Array Radar System [1] (SSPARS), colloquially Ballistic Missile Early Warning System radar network (BMEWS radar network), [2] is a United States Space Force radar, computer, and communications system for missile ...
Harmony 670, a universal remote. A universal remote is a remote control that can be programmed to operate various brands of one or more types of consumer electronics devices. . Low-end universal remotes can only control a set number of devices determined by their manufacturer, while mid- and high-end universal remotes allow the user to program in new control codes to the re
The F-22 radar from Lot 5 aircraft onward is the APG-77(V)1, which draws heavily on APG-81 hardware and software for its advanced air-to-ground capabilities. [5] In August 2005, the APG-81 radar was flown for the first time aboard Northrop Grumman's BAC 1–11 test aircraft. The radar system had accumulated over 300 flight hours by 2010.
The S753 is a tactical control radar version of the S743 with the explicit goal of reducing setup times. While the S723 required around six hours to set up, the S743 reduced this to four hours, [29] and the S753 to one hour. To aid this, the vertical coverage is reduced by removing one module, leaving 32 elements, reducing the number of ...
The AN/APG-68 radar is a long range (maximum detection range 80 kilometres [50 mi]) [2] Pulse-Doppler radar designed by Westinghouse (now Northrop Grumman) to replace AN/APG-66 radar in the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon. The AN/APG-68 radar is now currently being replaced on US Air Force F-16C/D Block 40/42 and 50/52 by the AN/APG-83 ...
