ARS-800 Maritime Patrol Aircraft Radar

The ARS-880 Maritime Patrol Aircraft Radar has been developed for use in:

• airborne search and rescue (SAR) and support of maritime rescue missions,
• aerial reconnaissance and patrolling,
• support of customs and economic zone protection,
• surveillance and protection of fisheries,
• control of illegal immigration and terrorist threats,
• operations against surface vessels,
• natural disaster rescue and recovery support,
• sea pollution and oil slicks detection.
  

The ARS-800 radar is used in maritime patrol aircrafts as a stand-alone sensor or a basic component of a multi-sensor recognition system.

The color TFT display image indicates:

• contact heading,
• contact distance,
• contact bearing (relative, true, North),
• bearing between contacts (North reference),
• speed relative to ground reference,
• geographical position.
  

The image can show analog video input (contacts and coastline) and synthetic indicators (plots, routes, maps, heading markers) separately or in a variety of composite modes.

The onboard navigation system provides the radar with geographical position of the aircraft, its speed vector, altitude, heading, pitch and roll.

The radar can operate stand-alone or co-operate with a dedicated communication system to transmit the contact data to a coastal or shipborne command posts.
