This is a USSS communications suburban. It has three radio repeaters in it.
The first repeater is used to repeat the three 800 MHz encrypted phones from
the president's limo back to Air Force One. ( those are the two large antennas
on the back ). The second repeater is for the VHF P25 digital encrypted
protective service around the president. (the two smaller antennas) And the third
repeater is a satellite uplink/downlink used for secure communications. (the
two dome antennas) And yes, the WHCA also follows in the motorcade with two
black Ford communications vans "roadrunner" that also supplies secure
communications for the president in the event of an emergency. They are not operated by
the NSA, nor have they ever been. There main purpose is to set up worldwide
secure communications anywhere the president is.
