Fixed Operations significantly improved with the installation of a USAFSS AN/FLR-9 "Elephant Cage" antenna at the 6933rd SS, Karamursel AS, Turkey.

This antenna array, dubbed the Elephant Cage, was dismantled in 1996 when the USAF withdrew from the site, handing it back to the British Armed Forces.

The station, containing a huge 500-foot-diameter antenna array AN/FLR-9, called Elephant Cage, was there from 1957 until 1979.

In the past, wild elephants caught from the forests were brought here and put in wooden cages known as 'Aanakoodu' (Elephant Cage) to be tamed and trained for work.

One huge antenna array, called an Elephant Cage for its circular configuration, both detected and localized signals, while other towering whip antennas handled other tasks.

In April 1962 the existing Land Rover 109 model was issued along with a trailer carrying a large cage and a model elephant as Chipperfield's Circus Land Rover and Elephant Cage on Trailer (GS19).

Due to their large size and shape, these units were often nicknamed "Elephant Cages" or "Turkey Farms".

The unit operates an AN/FLR-9 Circularly Disposed Antenna Array (CDAA), also known as an "Elephant Cage".
