AN/APG-73. O AN/APG-73 é um radar multifuncional operando na banda de freqüência X , que foi desenvolvido pela Hughes Aircraft Company Radar Systems, El Segundo, Califórnia (EUA) a partir dos anos 80. O radar ficou operacional a partir de 1992 nos aviões de caça F/A-18 da Marinha e Corpo de Fuzileiros Navais dos EUA, bem como nas forças ...
O APG-79(V)4 é muito mais ágil e capaz que o APG-73 atualmente em uso nos Hornets. Radar AN/APG-73. As capacidades aprimoradas de mira do radar fornecem uma vantagem em operações cruciais, incluindo missões ar-ar, ataque marítimo e ar-superfície, afirma a fabricante.
An APG-73 fire control radar is installed into an F/A-18 Hornet. The radome swings open and the radar glides forward on rails to allow access to the entire system. By the 1990s, Hughes and Raytheon were seen as the leaders in tactical fighter radar development and production.
The APG-73 is an all-digital, multimode radar for use in both air-to-air and air-to-ground combat missions. It is an all weather, coherent, multimode, multi-waveform search-and-track sensor based primarily on the AN/APG-65 design, with technology crossovers from the APG-70 and APG-71 radars.
With the delivery of the last APG-73 in June 2006, Raytheon’s focus has shifted from production to maintenance, a market that could become very lucrative The AESA upgrade to the APG-73 is designated the APG-79(V); it will most likely replace the APG-73 in the marketplace
APG-79 AESA radar system is a significant advance in radar tech – from the front-end array to the back-end processor and operational software. This combat-proven AESA radar system increases the power of the U.S. Navy's Super Hornet and the classic Hornet
