General Dynamics bags radar replacement contract

Issue No. 12 | June 16-30, 2012

A General Dynamics C4 Systems-led team has been awarded a contract to develop and deploy modernised range instrumentation radars, replacing an aging and outdated fleet of radar systems currently operating at US Army test ranges.

The range radar replacement programme (RRRP) has a total potential value of $385 million over 10 years if all options are exercised. The initial award, valued at $29 million, provides funding for the engineering, manufacturing and development phase of the program and initial production and integration of the new radar systems at White Sands Test Center, New Mexico; Yuma Test Center, Arizona; Aberdeen Test Center, Maryland; and Redstone Test Center, Alaska.

The General Dynamics RRRP solution leverages the XSTAR family of instrumentation radars developed by STAR Dynamics.

“Capable of tracking up to 40 test objects simultaneously, the XSTAR instrumentation radars provide extremely accurate time, space and position information and significantly reduce the time required to deliver high-quality test data and results,” said Chris Marzilli, President of General Dynamics C4 Systems.
