Northrop Grumman has announced that it has executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at the Sixth National Radar Seminar in Bali, Indonesia with PT Industri Telekomunikasi Indonesia and the Research Centre For Electronics And Telecommunications of The Indonesian Institute Of Sciences to facilitate collaboration on pending ground-based radar opportunities in Indonesia.

According to the company, Northrop Grumman will bring its expertise in ground radars together with its Indonesian business partners' combined expertise in electronics research and manufacturing and knowledge of the unique needs of the Indonesian government. The team will participate in 'the upcoming Indonesian ground-based radar competition designed to help Indonesia increase air surveillance control and secure its border’.

The Northrop Grumman AN/TPS-78 is the latest generation of state-of-the-art radars made possible by advances in high power transistor technology and designed to operate in some of the harshest, most unforgiving environments. Proven in the field, the S-Band long-range AN/TPS-78 is the choice of the US Air Force (USAF) and customers worldwide.
