The Department of Defense sent a MiTEx spacecraft to inspect DSP 23 sometime in 2008. [7] Another DSP satellite was lost in 1999, DSP-19, after its Inertial Upper Stage failed following launch from a Titan 4B booster. [8] DSP-19 was a USAF Defense Support Program missile early warning satellite equipped with an infrared telescope to detect ...
The Blighter B202 Mk 2 radar from Blighter Surveillance Systems (a Plextek Group company) is an advanced E-Scan radar with no moving parts for high reliability in the field. Its weight is about 15 kg and is therefore truly man portable, about the weight of a machine gun and less than half the weight of other man-portable radars.
The AN/TPS-75 is a transportable passive electronically scanned array air search 3D radar produced in the United States. It was originally designated the TPS-43E2. Although the antenna is a radically new design from the TPS-43, the radar van itself, which houses the transmitter, receiver processors, and displays is very similar to the older TPS ...

A digital signal controller (DSC) is a hybrid of microcontrollers and digital signal processors (DSPs). Like microcontrollers, DSCs have fast interrupt responses, offer control-oriented peripherals like PWMs and watchdog timers, and are usually programmed using the C programming language, although they can be programmed using the device's native assembly language.
Artist's rendering of a US DSP phase III satellite. An early warning satellite is a satellite designed to rapidly identify ballistic missile launches and thus enable defensive military action. This type of satellite was developed during the Cold War and later became a component of missile defense systems.
