Members of Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic’s Air Traffic Control (ATC) Special Programs team, along with a host nation crane operator, pose in front of the radar tower the team built at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base (MSAB), Jordan. NIWC Atlantic electrical engineer Susan Marsh and senior electronics technician Rudy Diaz overcame adverse conditions, including COVID-19 travel restrictions, a significantly reduced workforce, limited equipment and terrain issues, to build the tower, which is critical for safe operations at the base airport. The Special Programs team earned the 2022 ATCA Annual Team Award for Outstanding Achievement (military category) for their work building a transportable ATC facility at MSAB.
