*SHORT/MEDIUM RANGE AIR DEFENSE RADAR: Life Extension Study

Abstract

The Short/Medium Range Air Defense Radar AN/TPS-63B is a two-dimensional, medium-range, medium altitude, transportable radar system which is doctrinally employed as a tactical gap-filler or as an early warning system for early deployment into the operational area. It has a 360-degree air surveillance capability at a range of 160 miles and complements the co-employed AN/TPS-59(V)3 three-dimensional, long-range, air surveillance radar system.
