Dual-Band Radar

Abstract

Dual-Band Radar (DBR) Upgrades: Funding is for Dual Band Radar (DBR) System upgrades to implement cost savings initiatives for Volume Search Radar (VSR) modifications, supportability analysis and associated logistics product updates; future upgrades/technology insertion efforts for Multi-Function Radar (MFR)/VSR as a part of the DBR suite on CVN 78 Class ships and the MFR on DDG 1000 Class ships. Funding is also required to resolve the hardware and software issues discovered during the various test events to include: DTB2-411, SDTS testing, Land Based Testing and pertinent At-Sea test events. The upgrades will include all aspects of the radar system/subsystems, including hardware and software. Specific subsystem areas include the Array, Transmit/Receive (T/R) module, Receiver/Exciter, Signal Data Processor, Radome, and power/cooling systems. Upgrades and technology insertions are required to maintain the level of force protection needed for ship defense against all threats envisioned in the littoral environment. The supportability analysis and logistic products associated with these upgrades will also be developed and updated. DBR CVN 78 Testing and Certification: FY17-FY18 requirement supports DBR At-Sea Test and Evaluation (T&E), Environmental Testing and DBR Systems Certification for CVN 78.
