Gotcha Radar Dishing, or 'Desching,' Up Meaningful ISR
'Desch,' AFRL's newest supercomputer, will translate Gotcha real-time radar data into high-resolution, three-dimensional video images to provide persistent situational awareness for troops, particularly in urban areas, any time of day or night and in all weather conditions. The superfast, super-storage-capacity machine takes its name from Dayton, Ohio, codebreaker and computer pioneer Joe Desch, who was instrumental in cracking Nazi codes during World War II.
