The new radar has an active phased array antenna (AFAR), which can be used to scan
Radars change the phases of signals, whichare emitted by transceiver modules and create a strong directional beam. This type of radar with AFAR has no moving parts, which is why it is easier to control.
A new radar will cost about halfcheaper and weighs three times less than analogues. Its weight is 59 kg, length is about 71 cm, width is 37 cm. It can be used to operate on small aircraft or inexpensive drones that can be used one-time.
As the developers stated, the radar will have bettercharacteristics compared to those currently found on F-16 fighters. Its transistor will be made of gallium nitride, and not of gallium arsenide, as usual.
This configuration will help scan the space and waste less energy.
