Nova Powers Lockheed’s New AN/TPQ-53 Counter-Fire Radar!
Military + Aerospace Electronics reports that “radar experts at Lockheed Martin Corp. are moving to full-scale production of the company’s AN/TPQ-53 counter-fire radar to detect, classify, track, and pinpoint enemy drones and incoming artillery shells without posing a risk to nearby aircraft and military forces… The so-called Q-53 is a solid-state phased array radar that detects, classifies, tracks, and determines the location of enemy indirect fire weapons like rockets, artillery shells, and mortars in either 360- or 90-degree modes. This system is replacing the aging U.S. Army AN/TPQ-36 and AN/TPQ-37 medium-range radars.”
