Back net radar update#
Update : A new communications relay tower was added at the Back Gate. Update : A new S-125 "Low Blow" radar site was added at the Back Gate. Update : Added a new high-res photo of the P-37 radar. Update : A new Russian P-37 "Bar Lock" radar site was added in late March of 2019. They usually come on about one or two hours before the actual test flight. This indicates that they are active, and that a test is about to begin or is already in progress. Sometimes at night you can see the red and blue radiation warning lights of the radar sites from Rachel. Similar radar sites can be seen in the vicinity of Cedar Gate, further to the north. They are used to test the stealth capabilities and other properties of new or modified aircraft coming out of Area 51 against actual enemy hardware.
What makes these sites particularly interesting is the fact that they are Russian models.
The sites are installed semi-permanently, almost in line with the north end of the Groom runways. There are several mobile radar sites and various support buildings northwest of the Area 51 North Gate guardhouse, less than a mile inside the perimeter.
