Changing the battlefield with revolutionary capabilities
Raytheon’s active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar systems with groundbreaking performance and tactical advantages are the cornerstone of current and future aircraft. Throughout the past 35 years, Raytheon has remained at the forefront of radar revolution, AESA continues on 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. The culmination of this journey is the new F-15 and F/A-18 radars—the world’s only and most advanced air-to-air, air-to-surface multimode AESA radars in production.
Providing incomparable detection, targeting, tracking, and self-protection capabilities, the new AESA systems are yet another hallmark in our evolving development of innovative radars in support of the men and women on the battlefield. The Raytheon AESA radar family may be tailored to fit any platform’s size, space and requirements.
When only the best and proven operational AESA capability and mission support is required, no one comes close to Raytheon’s commitment to servicemen and -women worldwide. When a service member’s life is on the line, 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, service members 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.
AESA radars are fielded on a variety of platforms, including the F-15 and F/A-18E/F, the B-2, and the ASTOR surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft. Adaptable to any platform, Raytheon’s proven AESA technology gives pilots and aircrews the ultimate operational edge.
Whatever the task—defense, ISR, or strike—pilots and aircrews already rely on Raytheon’s AESA technology for optimal mission assurance.
