ROTHR, an ionospheric backscatter radar, will be able to detect and track air and surface targets as far as 1,800 miles away and has a coverage area of approximately 1.5 million square miles

A communication dish, located in front of 727th Air Control Squadron's camouflaged tents, is used to provide exercise command and control capability. The assigned United States and foreign military members provide command and control for the world's largest joint service, multi-national tactical air operations exercise

A wide-angle view showing the Deployable Communication Equipment staging area for the 606th Air Control Squadron (ACS), set up on the flight pad near the entrance to the 52nd Fighter Wing (FW), located at Spangdahlem Air Base (AB), Germany. Equipment includes an OE-316 Quick Reaction satellite antenna, AN/TSC-100A satellite communications terminal, and AN/TRC-170 Tropo communications equipment

Twin 9 1/2' dishes of the TRC-170 Tropo-Scatter quick reaction antenna, used by the 728th Aerospace Control Squadron, Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, are used for long range communications by bouncing signals off the troposphere. Utilizing a network of 3-dimensional radars, and data communication with other sensor sources, this unit can provide integrated real-time battle information to the Air Operations Center and Joint Forces Air Command commanders for offensive and defensive actions
