    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_radar

    Type 984 radar on HMS Victorious, 1961. 3D radar provides for radar ranging and direction in three dimensions. In addition to range, the more common two-dimensional radar provides only azimuth for direction, whereas the 3D radar also provides elevation. Applications include weather monitoring, air defense, and surveillance.

    ARSR-3 and 3D search radar were used by the FAA in the Joint Surveillance System (JSS). The radar operated in the L-band at 1250 to 1350 MHz and detected targets at distances beyond 210 nautical miles; 390 kilometres (240 mi). The D model had height-finder capability. Westinghouse also built ARSR-4 3-D air surveillance radar in the 1990s for ...

    APAR is typically paired with Thales Nederland's SMART-L passive electronically scanned array radar (which operates at L band frequencies). SMART-L is a long-range Volume Search Radar (VSR) that is able to provide volume search and tracking out to 480 km. The whole system is called Anti-Air Warfare Systems (AAWS), and is based on the NATO Anti ...
