The AN/TPS-75 is a transportable 3-dimensional air search radar produced in the United States. It was originally designated the TPS-43E2. The entire system can be broken down and packed onto two M939 trucks for road transport and mobile air control. It can also be transported by planes such as the C-130 Hercules or bigger. The AN/TPS-75 is the primary transportable air combat and weaponry (AC&W) radar used by the United States Air Force. The TPS-75 is capable of transmitting 5-GigaWatts of power. There are many add-ons for the TPS-75. One of which allows the AN/TPS-75 to be tilted back to see into the atmosphere assisting in detection of long range ballistic missiles.
