A military airbase in Florida is testing a remote digital tower that allows air traffic control to take place hundreds, or even thousands of miles, away from runways.
A systems operational verification test took place at Homestead Air Reserve Base over the course of one week in late 2020. Testing was done using real-world scenarios and the airbase’s daily operations. An early operational assessment began in late 2020 and will be completed mid-2021, said Jay Balakirsky, Frequentis USA vice president of business development and sales.
