From Vision to Reality: 50 Years of Phased Array Development
Abstract
Phased array radar systems, which emerged over 55 years ago, have continually evolved from the early 60s to present day. Over 55 years ago, U.S. phased array radar systems brought a new dimension or capability that is fully realized in todays all-solid-state arrays, such as those on the F-22 and F-35 military aircraft. This process of expanding phased array capability involved an evolutionary series of steps each decade. This paper cites the most prominent U.S.-deployed phased array radars as viewed by one phased-array radar advocate.
