SMART-S MK2 3D MEDIUM TO LONG RANGE SURVEILLANCE RADAR
The design and construction of SMART-S Mk2 are based on current NATO standards for ship borne equipment.
SMART-S Mk2, Thales’s latest 3D multibeam radar, operates in S-band and is optimised for medium-to-long-range surveillance and target designation in littoral environments.
The latter consisting of a mix of sea, land, islands, coastal rains and thunderstorms and a multiple of radar targets including small surface targets, helicopters and anti-ship missiles. Furthermore, SMART-S Mk2 is designed to match the full performance of surface to air missiles (SAM), such as the Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile (ESSM).
SMART-S Mk2 is extremely suitable as the main air and surface surveillance radar in a one radar concept for light frigates, corvettes and ships such as Landing Platform Docks (LPD). With its 2 main modes, 250-km range, special helicopter mode, surface fire channels, easy installation, high reliability and easy maintainability, SMART-S Mk2 is again a step forward in Thales’s radar development.
SMART-S Mk2 is very succesful. Only six years after its introduction, an impressive 30 systems were sold to navies all over the world. They will be installed on new ships as well as on older vessels that are being modernized.
