PAN MILSAT (Panau Military Satellite) is a military base and notable building in Just Cause 2.

Appearance

The satellite dish in the base measures about a kilometre across. The base itself is a circle around the gigantic satellite dish, with 8 towers (4 to manipulate the dish and another 4 to hold the satellite receiver up), placed opposite to their counterparts across the dish. The small towers can be entered and houses each a control panel to manipulate the dish that only can be accessed during the Ular Boys mission Taking Care of the Dishes.

Purpose

It is not completely explained, but during the mission Taking Care of the Dishes, it is said that the military uses this base to track the Ular Boys activities in the area. This base is a part of the Panauan Space Program.

This base also doubles as a great Stunt park for cars or motor bikes.

Even after this base is completed to 100% and Taking Care of the Dishes is completed, this base remains a restricted area and soldiers still spawn at this base. This makes sense, as this base is part of the Panauan Space Program, so this base is likely very important to the Panau Military.

Completion

• 4 Broadcast Towers.
• 2 SAMs. Both located opposite to each other of the dish.
• 4 Generators.
• 1 Water Tower.
• 6 Fuel Depots.
• 2 Drug Drops. (These do not add to the completion of the base)
• 7 Collectable Items:
  • 3 Weapon Parts.
  • 2 Vehicle Parts.
  • 1 Armour Part.
  • 1 Cash Stash.

One resource item is inside a control room and can be entered through a doorway on the tier above it. It may seem closed off but that the item is located at the bottom of a staircase within the tower. Another way to access that resource item is to start Taking Care of the Dishes, find the red beacon showing the first control panel then go down from there. It should be there.

Location

Northeast of the Ular stronghold Awan Cendawan Power Plant.

Vehicles

• MV V880.
• MV Command - Only during the side-mission Taking Care of the Dishes.
• Mullen Skeeter Hawk - On a helipad at the east end of the base.
• UH-10 Chippewa - Only during the side-mission Taking Care of the Dishes.

Trivia

• This place is an easter egg to the 1995 James Bond movie "Goldeneye", in which it is a satellite that controls an EMP weapon in outer space that is aimed at London. It is later destroyed, making the mission that takes place here a reference as well.
• PAN MILSAT also resembles the real life Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico, which is a gigantic radio telescope used for astronomy. This was used as a filming location for Goldeneye, mentioned above.
• As explained above, this base is very important, so realistically this base would have several more SAMs than just two, in the event of an aerial attack (Rico attacking by a type of armed helicopter).
