Summary

Description
English: A multi-agency radar site located at Fort Lawton, Washington, circa 1962-63. The radome in the center with the uncovered steel structure is a search radar owned and maintained by the Federal Aviation Administration. The two radar systems on the outside of the photo, without radomes, are US Army FPS-6 height-finders. The two radars with radomes and white covered structure beneath (one near, the other in the back) are US Air Force FPS-6A height-finders. The radar with a white radome and dark covered structure beneath is a US Air Force FPS-26A height-finder, under construction in this photo.
