The APG-63 was developed in the early 1970s and has been operational since 1973, and was installed on all F-15A/Bs. [1] In 1979, it received a major upgrade and became the first airborne radar to incorporate a software programmable signal processor (PSP), and the PSP allowed the system to be modified to accommodate new modes and weapons through software reprogramming rather than by hardware ...
The AN/APG-68 radar is a long range (Max Detection Range 80 kilometres [50 mi]) [2] Pulse-Doppler radar designed by Westinghouse (now Northrop Grumman) to replace AN/APG-66 radar in the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon. The AN/APG-68 radar is now currently being replaced on US Air Force F-16C/D Block 40/42 and 50/52 by the AN/APG-83 AESA ...
Aircraft interception radar, or AI radar for short, [1] is a British term for radar systems used to equip aircraft with the means to find and track other flying aircraft. [2] These radars are used primarily by Royal Air Force (RAF) and Fleet Air Arm night fighters and interceptors for locating and tracking other aircraft, although most AI ...
