Radar contract to QinetiQ
The British ministry of defence has ordered radar equipment from QinetiQ.
The ministry of defence will use the E-Scan equipment in its Advanced Radar Targeting System (ARTS) on a Tornado GR4A.
"By replacing the mechanically scanned antenna with an array made using discrete transmit/receive (T/R) modules we can achieve greater range and target resolution whilst at the same time benefiting from an inherently more robust design", Andrew Sleigh, MD of QinetiQ's defence business, told EETimes.
