The capabilities of this advanced AESA are derived from the F-22's AN/APG-77 and the F-35's AN/APG-81. It is designed to fit F-16 aircraft with no structural, power or cooling modifications. [ 3 ] The SABR is scalable to fit other aircraft platforms and mission areas.
The radar's AESA technology provides quick updates on multiple targets, and its solid-state antenna construction makes it more reliable and cost-effective than traditional radar systems. [2] The radar has a range of up to 150 km (80 nm) and can track multiple targets simultaneously. [ 3 ]
The Eurofighter Typhoon combat aircraft with its nose fairing removed, revealing its Euroradar CAPTOR AESA radar antenna. An active electronically scanned array (AESA) is a type of phased-array antenna, which is a computer-controlled antenna array in which the beam of radio waves can be electronically steered to point in different directions without moving the antenna.

The AN/FPS-117 is an L-band active electronically scanned array (AESA) 3-dimensional air search radar first produced by GE Aerospace in 1980 and now part of Lockheed Martin. [1] [2] The system offers instrumented detection at ranges on the order of 200 to 250 nautical miles (370 to 460 km; 230 to 290 mi) and has a wide variety of interference and clutter rejection systems.
The AN/APG-77 system itself exhibits a very low radar cross-section, supporting the F-22's stealthy design. [3] The upgraded APG-77(V)1 may have an even greater range. Much of the technology developed for the APG-77 was used in the AN/APG-81 radar for the F-35 Lightning II , and in turn the technology from the APG-81 was applied to the upgraded ...
AN/APG-81 Northrop Grumman AESA radar for F-35 Lightning II; AN/APG-82 for F-15E Strike Eagle upgrades, originally proposed as AN/APG-63(V)4; AN/APG-83 SABR Northrop Grumman AESA radar for F-16V Block 70/72 Viper standard new production and upgrades; AN/APG-84 RACR Raytheon AESA radar for F-16 Fighting Falcon upgrades
The Erieye radar system is an Airborne Early Warning and Control System (AEW&C) developed by Saab Electronic Defence Systems, formerly Ericsson Microwave Systems, of Sweden. It uses active electronically scanned array (AESA) technology. The Erieye is used on a variety of aircraft platforms, such as the Saab 340 and Embraer R-99.
The AN/APG-85 is an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar system designed by Northrop Grumman for the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II.The AN/APG-85 is a further development of the AN/APG-81 and is planned to be installed in all three variants of the F-35 aircraft from Lot 17 and onwards, which are planned to enter production in 2025.
