Selex will supply its Grifo radar system for the combat aircraft of two unnamed customers under two contracts announced by the company on 27 February.
According to the company, both contracts saw the Grifo radar system selected for its performance and flexible architecture. The system can be installed in a number of combat aircraft and integrated with avionics suites.
The Grifo airborne fire control radar range is multi-modal and operates in the X-band. It offers a variety of air-to-air, air-to-surface and navigation modes, along with high-resolution ISAR and SAR. The radar is used by six international air forces and is currently in service on seven types of aircraft.
The radar system features open architecture, fully-coherent pulse Doppler, air-cooled TWT transmitter, complete ECCM provisions set, tracking accuracy to support missiles release and guidance and a monopulse flat plate slotted array antenna.
