Australia looks towards space with force restructure, investment and training
Australia is looking to improve its presence in space with a focus on communications and creating a dedicated segment of its defence forces committed to the domain.
Northrop introduces Vanguard radar solution
Northrop Grumman has introduced its new Vanguard multi-function, open architecture radar solution for multiple missions and platforms.
With a modular, panel-based structure, each radar panel represents a flexible building block that can be tailored to meet changing mission requirements. Each panel can act independently as its own radar, or can be connected with the desired number of other radar panels to form one single, larger radar array. Each panel is also field replaceable, creating life-cycle cost savings and reducing downtime.
The company has conducted more than ten rigorous test flights of the system. Modes for the air-to-ground radar mission - including ground moving target indicator, dismounted moving target indicator and synthetic aperture radar mapping - were successfully executed during the first test flight of the solution in April 2017.
Vanguard can also adopt third party software and interface with open mission suite battle management command and control systems.
