Existing System Modifications Report. A Report as Part of USAKA Long Range Planning Study

Abstract

This report describes modifications to existing sensors at Kwajalein in order to ensure they are capable of meeting mission requirements and user needs in the 1990's. Modifications and capability improvements for KREMS radar (ALTAIR, TRADEX, ALCOR, and MMW) as well as the FPQ-19, MPS-36's, telemetry and RADOTS are described. This is part of a series of reports aimed at developing a long range plan for the sensors at Kwajalein. Keywords: Guided missile ranges; Kwajalein Atoll; KREMS (Kiernan Reentry Measurements Site); Army facilities; Guided missile tracking systems; Ballistic test instrumentation: ALTAIR (ARPA long Range Tracking and Instrumentation Radar); ALCOR (ARPA Lincoln Coherent Observable Radar); Millimeter waves; Radar tracking.
