Note the 2 radar antennas (a better view). The LOPAR Acquisition is just over the wrecker, and a tracking radar is behind the white pole. (The Target Tracking Radar and the Missile Tracking Radar look identical.)

Its Saturday, and a group is working on the engine of the wrecker. Note the 2 radar antennas (a better view). The LOPAR Acquisition is just over the wrecker, and a tracking radar is behind the white pole. (The Target Tracking Radar and the Missile Tracking Radar look identical.) |
The wrecker is an important part of the working site, and the site restoration.
Many items of this transportable Nike system are quite heavy (a launcher is 7 tons)
and motorized mechanical assistance is definitely helpful.
Please note: All radars were actually at the top of "Wolf Ridge" nearby, however that site is abandoned, and part the road collapsed in the 1989 earthquake.
