The system is based on a high performance Electronically Reconfigurable Antenna (ERA) and is a robust combination of radar and IR sensors.  The integration of IR, radar sensors, and concomitant processing results in all-weather performance, along with low cost, size, weight and power requirements.

Capabilities Include:

  • Wide field of view
  • Narrow beam
  • Agile scanning
  • Low cost in mass production
  • Low profile
  • No moving parts
