Reconfigurable Aperture Precision Targeting Radar (RAPTR) for Vehicle and Dismount Exploitation Radar (VADER) (RADER)
Abstract
The current RADAR sensor (VADER) was designed for counterinsurgency operations limiting the effectiveness against near-peer threats. This effort will mature wide-band, multi-function RF, aperture technology developed under Army Science and Technology (S&T) to deliver an advanced payload that significantly increases range, accuracy and survivability of current airborne surveillance radar systems to the High Accuracy Detection and Exploitation System (HADES) program. This effort will integrate an advanced payload into a digital radar with an open architecture radar backend to facilitate integration of advanced algorithms and advanced operational modes to the HADES system.
