Raytheon has been awarded a contract to design and develop an S-band radar and radar suite controller technology demonstrator for the US Navy’s new air and missile defence radar (AMDR).

Under the $112.3m contract, Raytheon will design and develop radar arrays for far-field testing to refine the system concept for the engineering and manufacturing development phase of the programme.

AMDR will consist of an S-band radar, X-band radar and radar suite controller and will provide unprecedented capabilities for the Navy’s Arleigh Burke Class destroyers.

Raytheon has partnered with GD Advanced Information Systems and shipbuilder Gibbs & Cox for the concept development of the radar solution.
