The AN/APY-10 is an American multifunction radar developed for the U.S. Navy's Boeing P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol and surveillance aircraft. [1] AN/APY-10 is the latest descendant of a radar family originally developed by Texas Instruments, and now Raytheon after it acquired the radar business of TI, for Lockheed P-3 Orion, the predecessor of P-8.
A US Navy P-8 Poseidon with an AN/APS-154 attached to its belly. The AN/APS-154 Advanced Airborne Sensor (AAS) is a multifunction radar installed on the P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft. The radar is built by Raytheon as a follow-on to their AN/APS-149 Littoral Surveillance Radar System (LSRS).
The P-8 features the Raytheon APY-10 multi-mission surface search radar. [42] Unlike the preceding P-3, most versions of the P-8 lack a magnetic anomaly detector (MAD), but the P-8I is equipped with a MAD at India's request. [43] Various sensor data are combined via data fusion software to track targets. [44]
On Thursday, the Department of Defense awarded Boeing a $128.4 million modification to a previously awarded cost-plus-award-fee contract to perform "extended lifetime fatigue testing, teardown ...
The development of the P-8 radar won the team responsible for its introduction the state prize. In 1951 the P-8 radar underwent a significant modification which boosted the detection range to 250 km against a target flying at an altitude of 10 km, the target detection range of low altitude targets was also improved by a factor of 60-70%.

The Department of Defense awarded more than $961 million worth of contracts to a total of 17 awardees on Thursday. Notable awards to publicly traded companies included: $74.2 million: Awarded to ...
The latest in maritime aircraft is the US Navy P-8 Poseidon. Maritime patrol aircraft are typically fitted with a wide range of sensors: [63] Radar to detect surface shipping movements. Radar can also detect a submarine snorkel or periscope, and the wake it creates. Magnetic anomaly detector (MAD) to detect the iron in a submarine's hull. The ...
