GM 200 The Ground Master 200 (GM 200) is a multi-mission tactical 3-D mediumrange Air Defense radar. This mobile radar is dedicated to the protection of key assets and deployed forces. The GM 200 offers outstanding performance in terms of warning delay and tracking accuracy on high maneuvering targets. With full 3-D coverage, the GM 200 is a dual-use radar that can switch instantaneously between the extended range surveillance mode to the shorter range engagement mode. The GM 200 radar has an option to track rockets, mortars and missiles (detection, impact prediction and launch point computation). The GM 200 radar is a single 20 ft ISO shelter and operates on a truck. The GM 200 radar can integrate two operator positions within a C4I solution to manage air defense assets and can be used as a stand alone sensor (operation ready with two people in less than 15 minutes). The Ground Master (GM) family architecture is based on common building blocks and interfaces, a Stacked Beam Concept and Digital Beam Forming, providing complete range and altitude coverage. For ease of maintenance, the GM radars can be remotely monitored using a standard protocol underpinned by cyber solutions. GM 400 The Ground Master 400 (GM 400) is a 3-D long-range Air Defense radar, offering detection from very high to very low altitudes. It tracks a wide range of targets from highly maneuverable tactical aircraft flying below several hundred feet to the unconventional small radar crosssection device as Unmanned Air Vehicles or cruise missiles, ensuring an excellent global air picture. The GM 400 can be associated with different secondary radars providing air traffic control capabilities, and can also integrate Tactical Ballistic Missiles detection and tracking capabilities. GM 400 includes an Electronic Counter Measures feature to cope with the most severe electronic warfare environment including decoy device capabilities, while the S-band represents the better choice considering EW (wider bandwidth) and civilian application interference constraints. The GM 400 fits inside a single 20 ft ISO container and can be rapidly deployed. AN/MPQ-64 F1 Improved Sentinel The AN/MPQ-64 F1 Improved Sentinel is a 3-D, phased-array highly mobile and tactical X-band radar system. Offering protection from low to medium altitudes, it has an air surveillance range of up to 120 km. The Sentinel provides medium-range detection in harsh terrain, plus precise rocket-artillery-mortar detection. Sentinel’s versatility encompasses air defense, air surveillance, counter-rocket and mortar sense-and-warn missions. The Sentinel supports a multitude of advanced weapon systems such as NASAMS, HAWK and Stinger missilebased SHORAD weapons and a variety of indigenous VSHORAD missile systems and air defense guns. A well-established, low-risk technology modernization roadmap ensures effectiveness against current and future airborne threats. Requiring a combat crew of two personnel, Sentinel can operate autonomously at remote sites or integrated into remote command and control systems. Sentinel is an extremely flexible, lightweight and highly mobile radar system that can be moved off road, helicopter transported or rapidly transported by cargo aircraft to remote locations. AN/TPQ-36 Firefinder The AN/TPQ-36 Firefinder is an X-band, medium-range weapon-locating radar system. This radar is lightweight, highly mobile and highly efficient in the precise location and impact prediction of rockets, artillery and mortars. The AN/TPQ-36 Firefinder has a range up to 24 km, providing pinpoint targeting data against hostile weapon locations and counter battery fires. The AN/TPQ-36 Firefinder can be emplaced and operational within 15 minutes and march-ordered in five minutes by a crew of two. Building on the radar’s mature proven technology, the system now shares a state of the art COTS-based radar processor with the AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder radar. These improvements translate to lower system life cycle costs and higher reliability. The radar’s reliability and maintainability are simplified by computer controlled, built-in test equipment which provides for an exceptionally high system availability. While five personel are assigned to a combat crew to provide 24 hour operational capability, the AN/TPQ-36 can be operated by a single operator. It is designed to operate in direct support of forward combat units and is transportable via tactical transport aircraft, helicopters and a variety of tactical vehicles. AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder The AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder is an S-band, long-range weapon-locating radar. Similar in operation to the medium-range AN/TPQ-36 Firefinder, the larger AN/TPQ-37 is highly accurate against long-range hostile weapons and extended range for friendly counter battery fire adjustments. AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder R M I S h e lt e r In addition to supporting all radar operations, the advantage of the newly available RMI Operations Control Group shelter, which uses next-generation technology, is that it gives training and tactical units’ commanders the flexibility of a standalone training device, independent of radar system. The AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder provides weapon location capability up to 50 kilometers instrumented range. Operated by five combat crew, the AN/TPQ-37 Firefinder can be emplaced and operational in 30 minutes and march-ordered in 15 minutes. Its size and weight enable it to be towed and carried by a variety of vehicles as well as a C-130 transport aircraft. The newest model of the AN/TPQ-37, called Reliability Maintainability Improvement (RMI), uses advanced technology updates to extend service life and reduce life cycle cost. The RMI incorporates a modular, air-cooled transmitter and COTS-based radar processor. RMI upgrades can be applied to existing AN/TPQ-37 radars as well as new production radars. Pav i n g t h e way f o r t o m o r r o w ThalesRaytheonSystems is setting new standards in radar technologies. The company invests in continuously modernising its portfolio to ensure customers have access to the latest technology and upgrade programs. ThalesRaytheonSystems engineers are already working on radars of the future that will expand your air defense capability.
