Surveillance Information Processing Facility

A.  DESCRIPTION:  The Analyst Van V-XX1/TSQ-105 (V) 5 is one
of four specially constructed electronic shelters which make up
Surveillance Information Processing Facility of the GUARDRAIL/
COMMON SENSOR (GR/CS) System 4 Integrated Processing Facility
(IPF).  The Analyst Van is used with three other systems to
observe, analyze, and process transmissions from the AN/ARW-83
(V) 6 Airborne Relay Facility (ARF).  The total system provides
signal intelligence (Near real-time information) to tactical
commanders to include the locations of deployed hostile forces.
In the Analyst Van, there are eight terminal operator stations,
one senior analyst, one records keeper, and one map board plotter
for a total of eleven positions who perform location analysis,
mission management and traffic analysis tasks.  Terminal
Operators retrieve files produced by the operators in the
Test/COMINT and the PROC/ELINT Vans.  The Terminal Operator
determines the reportability of each piece of data, and if
required makes a report.  Senior Analyst quality checks each
report and sends the report to all customers.  Van dimensions
are: Length 527.27 inches, Width 102.5 inches, & Height 96
inches; Weight w/o chassis is: 24320 pounds.  Chassis dimensions
are: Length 488.75, Width 96, & Height 54.75; Weight is 7960
pounds.  The Analyst Van requires a dedicated commercial
tractor truck for intra-theater deployment.  The
Analyst Van requires 30.75 KW at 60HZ furnished by the AN/MJQ-34
(LIN Z75545 BOIP M050AI).

     B.  CAPABILITIES:  There are eight operator stations located
in the analyst van.  It is world-wide deployable except by rail.
Maintainers are MOS 33R.  Electrical power for the system is
provided by the AN/MJQ-26.  It is capable of 24 hour operations
in a NBC protected environment.  Corps support is required for
intra-theater deployment of the GS/CS System.  Skid mounted air
conditioners degrade mobility.  User communication requirements
