The AN/MPN-14K Landing Control Central (LCC) is a tactical air traffic control system comprised of two equipment vans housing radar and associated communications and electronics equipment: The Precision Approach Radar (PAR)/Airport Surveillance Radar

(ASR) van and the Operational (OPS) van. The Indicator Control Box (C-8625T) “A-Box” interfaces physically and functionally with a segment of Interrogator Set AN/TPX-42

Identification Friend or Foe (IFF). It operates in conjunction with an indicator group to enable synthetic target symbols to be displayed on the indicator as determined by the controls located on its front panel assembly. The MPN-14K is currently planned to remain in service through

2030.
