Notes
- Many different sources say a smaller follow-on system, AN/MST-T1(V), is called "Mini-MUTES"
- In reference to the AN/TPS-3, Wikipedia article SCR-602 (AN/TPS-3) says the frequency is 176–202 MHz (170.34–148.41 cm) instead of 590–610 MHz (50.81–49.15 cm) claimed by the MobileRadar.org site cited in this list
- Not to be confused with SEACOM (African cable system) and SEACOM (Asian cable system) communication systems, or Rafael Advanced Defense Systems's trademarked SeaCom naval communications suite
