AN/GPN-22 (Hi-PAR) is a solid-state, phased-array, high-performance, Precision Approach Radar used by the Air Force. The AN/GPN-22 utilizes a fixed equipment shelter but with the antenna mounted on a separate rotating base. The width of the azimuth scan is 20 degrees, the width of the elevation scan is 8 degrees. The radar can simultaneously track and control six aircraft to 15 NM range in every weather condition.The precision approach radar uses in the scan mode frequency diversity to eliminate large target fluctuations and provide target enhancement. The radar transmitter is a rack-mounted Traveling Wave Tube (TWT) amplifier operating in X-Band.The AN/GPN-22 is intended specifically for unattended use in fixed-base air traffic control, and in high-density air traffic.AN/GPN-20(V) is a transportable dual- channel radar system with tower-mounted antenna and remote site operator controls. The mission of the AN/GPN-20(V) is to detect aircraft within 60 nautical miles of the radar site and to process radar information for display on a plan-position indicator (PPI). Typically, the AN/GPN-20(V) is compatible for use with beacon radar, radio microwave link (RML) equipment or landlines, video mapping equipment, and a radar terminal display system. The antenna group is located adjacent to the building and can use either AB1245/G or ASR-4 type tower. The remote site group is located in operations (OPS) site location. The solid-state AN/GPN- 20(V) system is equipped with frequency diversity capability so that it may operate with both channels simultaneously or, as an alternative, with either channel independently.

The AN/TPS-75 Radar System [ "Tipsy 75"] is a mobile, tactical radar system capable of providing radar azimuth, range, height, and Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) information for a 240-nautical-mile area. This deployable/transportable radar system is capable of providing long range radar data to support operations and control of tactical aircraft. The TPS-75 today forms the backbone of the US Air Force Air Defense system. The AN/TPS-75 Radar system provides a "real-time" radar airspace picture and data in support of the battle commander and the Ground Theater Air Control System (GTACS) via radio, telephone, microwave relay, or satellite communications link. The AN/TPS-75 radar system includes the UPX-27 IFF/SIF equipment, Tactical Air Operation Interface Gp OA 9194/TYQ-23(V)2, Modular Control Equipment Interface Group (MIG) and AN/TLQ-32 ARM Decoy. The AN/TPS-75 is a mobile ground radar set designed to conduct long-range search and altitude-finding operations simultaneously. Data from the AN/TPS-75 can be combined with information from other radar to form an integrated picture of the aerial battlefield for theater commanders. The 729th Air Control Squadron, Hill AFB, Utah, uses this radar for a variety of missions. The self-contained data gathering system operates independent of inclement weather and jamming environments and requires only a 400-Hz power source to operate.The system weighs about 8,400 pounds. It may be transported via plane, helicopter or truck. This includes Air Force C-141 Starlifter, C-5 Galaxy, C-17 Globemaster III or C-130 Hercules aircraft. During daylight hours, a trained six-person crew can assemble the unit from transport mode to full operation within 90 minutes. A trained crew of nine can accomplish the same task within 2.5 hours at night. Disassembly of the set can be done in the same time. The unit's antenna operates from sea level to 10,000 feet in conditions that include winds up to 52 knots.
