3D Tactical Control Radar (3D TCR): The 3D Tactical Control Radar (TCR) is a Tatra VVL mounted, mobile stand-alone medium range, all weather 3D surveillance Radar for detection and identification of aerial targets. Pertinent data can be collected at Target Data Receiver (TDR), 20 Kms away from the Radar. The radar operates in S-band and is capable of Track-While-Scan (TWS) of airborne targets up to 90kms for fighter aircrafts and 65 Kms for UAVs, subject to radar horizon. The antenna is mechanically rotated in azimuth to provide 360 deg and 50 deg elevation coverage upto 10 Kms height.
Low level Light Weight 2D Radar - BHARANI: Low level Light Weight L-Band 2D Radar is a light weight, battery powered and compact sensor which provides 2D surveillance solution to alert Army Air Defence Weapon Systems mainly in mountainous terrain against hostile aerial targets like UAVs, RPVs, helicopters and fixed wing aircraft flying at low and medium altitudes. The radar can be transported by vehicles, animal transport or group of men or as helislung loads. It can be dismantled into packages to facilitate quick installation and re-location in mountainous terrain. It will act as an early warner to air defence weapon systems employed to provide protection to vulnerable areas or vulnerable points. |
The system consists of radar, Commander Display Unit (CDU) and messaging unit Target Designation Unit (TDU) and Target Data Receivers (TDR). One radar can service upto 10 TDRs using existing combat radio resources/ network. The CDU can be located upto 750m from the radar. The radar with modular architecture, advanced ECCM features, ruggedness as per Mil standards can be operated in varied conditions including extreme climatic and geographical conditions and in battle field situations, especially offensive EW environment. The radar detects and tracks short range air-to-ground threats with a high probability of detection. The radar has an integrated IFF that can detect, confirm, classify and attain IFF status on every target in the battle space under surveillance.
Low level Light Weight 3D Radar - ASLESHA: ASLESHA is a multifaceted ground based S-Band 3D Low Level Light Weight Surveillance Radar for deployment in diverse terrains like plains, deserts, mountain tops and high altitude regions. Aslesha detects and tracks heterogeneous air targets, including helicopters, fighters and UAVs at low and medium altitudes. The radar can scan the valley. It provides accurate range, azimuth and height information for each target with electronically steerable multi-beam technology in elevation. The radar sweeps 360 degree in azimuth and 30 degree in elevation to provide air space awareness. Semi-distributed active aperture radar uses advanced VLSI and high-speed digital technologies like high efficiency T/R modules, DDS, digital receiver and programmable signal processor to provide 3D air space awareness with high accuracy, resolution and reliability. |
As all the main radar subsystems are on the rotating platform, this radar architecture obviates the two most common single point failures by dispensing with high power rotary joints and central transmitter; thereby making the radar system extremely reliable. The radar is easily re-locatable and can be deployed or decamped in less than 15 minutes. The radar is engineered in multiple packages to enable easy transportability in mountainous terrain by vehicles, group of men, or as an under slung carriage by a helicopter. The remote operation of the radar through Commander's Display Unit (CDU) upto 1 km from the radar provides safety to the crew during operation. The facility also enables the Commander to deploy the radar at a tactically favorable point. The quadripod-mounted radar is built to operate in networked or stand-alone mode to support joint or independent operations by Air Force. Multi ECCM features help the radar to deliver intended performance even under intense hostile EM environment. Aslesha being compact, light weight and modular, can be used in different innovative roles like air space surveillance in urban areas for VVIPs, large critical installations.

Long Range Solid State Active Phased Array RADAR LSTAR system developed under the Technology Demonstration Programme, is a Long Range, Multifunction Solid-State Active Phased Array Radar, mainly for surveillance, detection and tracking of airborne targets. The Radar carries out target detection and provides measurements of range, azimuth, elevation and target speed. The Radar Data Processor (RDP) built into the system provides target identity, target state vector and maintenance of multiple target tracks based on updates. The Radar operates with Low as well as Medium PRF waveforms using Pulse Doppler processing.
FLR: Flight Level Radar for Air Force (RAJENDRA): RAJENDRA, a multifunction electronically scanned phased array Radar, is the primary sensor at the Flight level for Akash Weapon System which is an air defence system for the Armed Services. The radar has the capability to perform extensive search, track multiple targets and missiles, and to command and guide own multiple functions missiles concurrently. The Rajendra fulfils multiple radar functions like surveillance, tracking and guidance. The radar system is mounted on two wheeled vehicles � Flight Level Radar (FLR) and Flight Control Centre (FCC) - to provide sensor support for all Air Defence operations. The distributed hardware - radar in FLR and control center in FCC - provides distributed work environment and facilities to operate the radar from control center. It is engineered to support Akash Weapon System deployment either in group or autonomous configuration. The radar has built-in UHF communication component providing voice and data communication with squadron control center when deployed in a group. Also, Integrated Radio Line Modem (IRLM) provides data communication to the launchers and to the surveillance radar. Environmentally hardened engineering, flexible architecture for tracked or wheeled platforms, aesthetically designed ergonomics, consistent performance over the years and advanced ECCM capabilities enable the commander to plan the operations for effectiveness and success.
