Flightradar24 is a Swedish Internet-based service that shows real-time aircraft flight tracking information on a map. It includes flight tracking information, origins and destinations, flight numbers, aircraft types, positions, altitudes, headings and speeds.
Flight paths of the helicopter and regional jet, with an approximate location of the collision. At 8:43 p.m. EST (01:43 UTC), flight 5342 was flying a visual approach to runway 1 when it made initial contact with the Reagan National control tower. The controller asked if the crew could switch to runway 33.
The radar provides data and range safety for missile launches. This radar, along with its data system, is used for tracking the Minuteman III ICBM. The AN/FPS-16 is a highly accurate ground-based monopulse single object tracking radar (SOTR), used extensively by the NASA crewed space program

Blue force tracking (BFT) systems consist of a computer, used to display location information, a satellite terminal and satellite antenna, used to transmit location and other military data, a Global Positioning System receiver (to determine its own position), command-and-control software (to send and receive orders, and many other battlefield support functions), and mapping software, usually ...
A U.S. Air Force E-8C Joint STARS, in flight. Airborne ground surveillance (AGS) refers to a class of military airborne radar system (Surveillance aircraft) used for detecting and tracking ground targets, such as vehicles and slow moving helicopters, as opposed to Airborne early warning and control, whose primary role is detecting and tracking aircraft in flight.
Tactical, support, drones, and strike aircraft capable of supersonic flight: Southwest Aerospace AN/ALE-45: Chaff/flare countermeasure dispenser: F-15 Eagle: Marconi Electronic Systems [23] AN/ALE-47: Chaff/flare countermeasures dispenser, replaced AN/ALE-39: Tracor (now BAE Systems) AN/ALE-50: Little Buddy passive electronic countermeasure ...
Autonomous air combat maneuvering instrumentation (AACMI) are second-generation GPS-based ACMI systems.. Unlike first-generation ACMI systems, which use ground radars to track and record the position of the aircraft on the range, AACMI systems use aircraft-mounted satellite navigation systems such as the US NAVSTAR GPS system.
