Selex delivers FADRs to Poland
Selex ES has delivered three Fixed Air Defence Radar (FADR) systems to Poland as part of the NATO air defence network, the company announced on 8 October.
FADR is a long range radar system with anti-ballistic missile capabilities that belongs to the Selex ES RAT 31 DL family. The Class I sensor provides long range air defence and meets full NATO interoperability standards.
The radar system will enhance NATO’s air defences from three strategic locations in Poland - two are located in the North East of the country, with the third located in the South East.
The radars were delivered under a public tender issued by the NATO Communications and Information Agency as part of the NATO Security Investment Programme (NSIP) to build the air defence radar backbone in Poland and other allied countries. The same model has been supplied to the Czech Republic, Turkey, Greece and Hungary.
