AN/FPN-36 Radar: The so called Quad radar is mobile, air-transportable ground control approach radar and is used for a precision approach under bad weather conditions. The approaching aircraft and the aircraft course and glide slope are displayed on a beta scan scope.

AN/MPQ-49 Forward Area Alerting Radar: The Forward Area Alerting Radar is an Army system for aircraft early warning. The Forward Area Alerting Radar system is a complete, self-contained, acquisition radar system, which consists of a radar set and a IFF set. The M561 Gamma Goat is its primary mover, and is has a trailer with a 5-kilowatt generator set.

AN/MRC-144 Radio System: The AN/MRC-144 is a mobile communications facility mounted in an M-998 Highly Mobile Multi-Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV)

AN/TRN-41 TACAN: The AN/TRN-41 is a portable, lightweight, air droppable, unmanned Tactical Air Navigation (TACAN) designed to provide bearing, facility identification, and distance information. The TACAN transmits continuous bearing information to an unlimited number of aircraft and provides slant range distance information. Three trained personnel should have the system operational in 4 hours.

AN/TSQ-216 Remote Landing Site Tower (RLST): RLST is a Tactical Mobile Control Tower. It is housed in a modified S-250 Shelter with an extendible roof which is raised for operation and lowered for transport. The system is configured for two operator positions and a supervisor and is fully self contained. Communications equipment is provided for VHF/UHF AM, VHF-FM and HF-SSB frequency bands. The radios can be remote by fibre optics up to 3 km from the tower. A towed trailer transports dual diesel generators, communications rack, and ancillary and support equipment.

Concept

These members would be sealed in there bolt hole near a municipal airport, where when where to awake they would already have a somewhat usable strip available. The team would awake up after their security team has arrived on site and begun clearing the field and setting up for operations.

If all went well the team would wake and began to assembly there aircraft and begin to fly missions for MP units in the area. I would image that there would also be a MP Engineer Team Near by that would be able to help them with airfield construction

Notes: Of course if you running operations over a long time, more people will be needed, I also left the aircraft type blank
