Uttam AESA radar on Tejas Mk2 or MWF nose cone (A CGI by Kuntal Biswas) |
In a big
development Private Sector Defense company Astra Microwave has delivered an
improved variant of Uttam AESA radar to DRDO's lab LRDE.
This AESA radar will now be integrated with Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas Mk2.
This improved variant will have more Transmitter Receiver (TR) modules than baseline Uttam AESA, but new radar will be smaller in size.
This is achieved by high density packing of TR modules and it will allow makers of Tejas to accommodate more electronics in nose cone of the aircraft like infrared search and tracking etc.
