ACE High System (Allied Command Europe High) was a Troposcatter communication system of NATO during the Cold War.
One of my most intense experiences.
This place is located on a peak of Apls. It wasn't a rational decision to climb this snow mountain without any clear path at night. After I reached halfway and then realized it is just impossible to keep going on, but it's also too dangerous to go back. I was stuck in the middle and for the first time felt extremely desperate. It ends up with I slipped down by accident for over 10 meters. Bruises and scratches all over my body are evidence of the insanity of that night.
This place is epic, but for sure I won't risk myself doing something like this again.

Der NATO-Teich hat seinen Namen nicht ohne Grund weg: Er liegt am Fuße des Wiehenhorst`s - einem Berg im Wiehengebirge. Bis in die 1970er Jahre befand sich auf dem Wiehenhorst die IFC einer NIke-Hercules-Raketenstellung. Betrieben wurde sie von der niederländsichen Arme im Auftrag der NATO. EIne Straße führt(e) an dem See vorbei hoch auf den Berg - daher heißt der See, der der Feuerwehr auch als Löschwasserteich dient, "NATO-Teich".

"My fellow Americans. Those of you who have been following the ongoing discussions around space defences will have undoubtedly heard the phrase 'Rods from God'. The feasibility and practicality of this idea has been debated for many years now. I am here to tell you that not only is it a possibility, but as of 0500 this morning, it is a reality. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of both our citizens and our allies, we have successfully launched our first 'Rods from God' prototype into the atmosphere. NATO is working hard to keep us safe, and today, we are that much safer. God bless you, God bless America, and God bless our enemies with tungsten rods."

My first time photographing an E-3 Sentry and what a sight it was with its smoky engines against the cloudy Radom sky.
The NATO E-3A Component has fourteen E-3A aircraft. These modified Boeing 707s are easily identifiable from the distinctive radar dome mounted on the fuselage. The E-3A usually operates at an altitude of around 10 km. From this altitude a single E-3A can constantly monitor the airspace within a radius of more than 400 km and can exchange information – via digital data links – with ground-based, sea-based and airborne commanders. By using pulse Doppler radar, an E-3A flying within NATO airspace can distinguish between targets and ground reflections and is therefore able to give early warning of low- or high-flying aircraft operating over the territory of a potential aggressor. This one is part of the NATO Tiger Meet ex in France 2019.
