The FRD-10 at NSGA Hanza, Okinawa was the first installed, in 1962, followed by eleven additional arrays, with the last completed in 1964 at NRRF Imperial Beach, CA. (Silver Strand) which was demolished in 2014. Due to their immense size, the ___location of the Bondville array ({{coord|40.0494|N|88.3807|W|scale:2000}}) and the other post-war antenna arrays are clearly visible in high-resolution aerial photography now available on the internet.
