Army Lt. Col. Tobin Magsig, battalion commander of 1st Battalion (Airborne), 501st Infantry Regiment, center-left, and Army Maj. Gen. Michael H. Shields, commanding general of U.S. Army Alaska, discuss the Combat SkySat system as a tethered Combat SkySat military retransmission platform floats in the air behind them at Forward Operating Base Sparta on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, Oct. 9, 2013. The unique SkySat system has a tethered and free-floating version, can serve as a repeater for hand-held military communications equipment, which has a normal range of about two kilometers and expands that to approximately 500 miles, and can be set up and rapidly operational on the battlefield.
