An original mounting bracket used on the quad-band large aperture antenna system sits atop one of the cases that stores the satellite communications system when is disassembled Nov. 24, 2020, on Ramstein Air Base, Germany. U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Trevor Zucker, 1st Combat Communications Squadron radio frequency transmissions technician, 3D-printed a nylon bracket that can withstand temperatures of up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and up to 4,000 pounds of pressure, making it a suitable substitution. Zucker created the part because of the challenges in obtaining replacement brackets, preventing the satellite communications system from becoming non-mission capable.
