Advanced Radar Threat System (ARTS-V1) Development

Abstract

The Advanced Radar Threat System-Variant 1 (ARTS-V1) program will develop, design, build and test threat system simulators based on advanced strategic, long-range, re-locatable foreign fielded surface-to-air missile (SAM) radar threat systems. ARTS-V1 will leverage an existing DoD test resource development program to reduce non-recurring development cost, schedule risk, and promote range interoperability between test and training. ARTS-V1 is designed to be used at Department of Defense (DoD) training ranges for aircrew training and tactics development to increase combat effectiveness and aircrew survivability by training aircrews to engage or defend against an advanced SAM threat before encountering it in actual combat. Various aircraft platforms may train against ARTS-V1, but the most stringent requirements for ARTS-V1 come from fifth generation aircraft capabilities. Additionally, development of a high-fidelity surrogate target, ongoing analyses, studies, and risk reduction efforts will focus on integrating ARTS and other systems into regional range and Live Virtual Constructive architectures.
