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.

In a 2013 competition, Lockheed Martin selected SABR as the AESA radar for the F-16 modernization and update programs of the United States Air Force and Republic of China Air Force. [ 2 ] The capabilities of this advanced AESA are derived from the F-22's AN/APG-77 and the F-35's AN/APG-81 .
The Ground Master 200 (GM200) is a medium range AESA 3D radar manufactured by Thales Group. The GM200 can operate both as an independent air surveillance radar or as the sensor module of an air defence system. The GM200 also features a surface channel and a Rocket/Artillery/Mortar sense and warn capability. [1] [2]
The AN/APG-81 is an active electronically scanned array (AESA) fire-control radar system designed by Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems (formerly Westinghouse Electronic Systems) for the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. [1] The AN/APG-81 is a successor radar to the F-22's AN/APG-77, and has an antenna composed of 1,676 transmit/receive modules.
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.
The AESA radar has an exceptionally agile beam, providing nearly instantaneous track updates and enhanced multi-target tracking capability. The APG-63(V)2 is compatible with current F-15C weapon loads and enables pilots to take full advantage of the AIM-120 AMRAAM 's capabilities, simultaneously initiating guidance for multiple missiles to ...
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 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.
