U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Gabriel Castro, 380th Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, verifies that the Mode 5 Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) antenna is working properly on an EC-130 Compass Call aircraft before it takes off from Al Dhafra Air Base, United Arab Emirates, June 29, 2021. The Mode 5 IFF system sends out a signal to other aircraft’s radar, before a pilot can physically see them, indicating they are a U.S. Air Force aircraft. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt.
