Raytheon’s combat-proven AESA: Changing the battlefield with revolutionary capabilities.

Raytheon’s active electronically scanned array radar systems, with groundbreaking performance and tactical advantages, are the cornerstone of current and future aircraft. For more than 40 years, Raytheon has remained at the forefront of radar revolution. Our leading-edge AESA technology continues in that tradition.

After designing and building the world’s first operational AESA fighter radar—the APG-63(V)2 for the F-15C, first fielded in 2000, Raytheon has continuously developed and refined its AESA technology. We have now delivered more than 300 AESA radar systems for multiple platforms to customers worldwide, and these radars have surpassed more than 250,000 operational flight hours.

Providing incomparable detection, targeting, tracking, and self-protection capabilities, our AESA systems are yet another hallmark in our evolving development of innovative radars in support of the warfighter. The Raytheon AESA radar family may be tailored to fit any platform’s size, space and requirements.

Only Raytheon’s advanced AESA radars give pilots the edge in today’s challenging scenarios. And it further enables their ability to operate in the increasingly net-centric battlespace of the future.

Raytheon’s AESA radar systems have the ability to link fighters, bombers and surveillance aircraft; military forces in the air and on the ground; integrate data from unmanned aerial vehicles and nontraditional ISR sources to provide the right information at the right time for the right mission.

Adaptable to any platform, Raytheon’s proven AESA technology gives pilots and aircrews the ultimate operational edge. Whatever the task—defense, ISR, or strike—warfighters rely on Raytheon’s AESA technology for optimal mission assurance.
