Following an earlier retirement ceremony at MCAS Yuma, the TPN-22 and the TPS-73 radar systems were officially retired and put on display for museum visitors. Both radar systems were used for tracking and guiding aircraft in forward deployed scenarios when air traffic control towers were not available. (Marine Corps photo by Sgt. David Bickel/Released)
