The Seaspray 7500E multi-mode radar combines a state-
of-the-art Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) with
a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) processor. Seaspray
7500E offers leading edge capabilities covering both air-to-
air and air-to-surface environments. Meeting the customers
evolving requirements, Seaspray 7500E is one of the latest
members to the successful Seaspray family of surveillance
radars. More than 500 Seaspray radars have been delivered
to operators around the world on a variety of platforms
ranging from helicopters and fxed wing aircraft, to fast patrol
boats.
KEY FEATURES
AESA technology and fexible waveform generation capability
enables Seaspray 7500E to deliver peak performance in all
modes.
Using multiple low power, solid state Transmit/Receive Modules
(TRM) makes the Seaspray 7500E radar more reliable than
conventional radar systems. This results in a signifcant cost
beneft over the life of the system.
Superior performance in detecting small targets, such as Fast
Inshore Attack Craft (FIAC) in high sea states, through use of
Composite Electronic and Mechanical Scanning (CEMS).
Interleaved modes by virtue of its ability to change waveforms
pulse-to-pulse. For instance, surface surveillance and weather
detection can be provided simultaneously. Effectively two
radars within one system.
Comprising just two primary air cooled Line Replaceable
Units and requiring no waveguide, Seaspray 7500E is easy to
install.
It can be provided as a turnkey solution with embedded
navigation sensors and Human Machine Interface or as a
sensor solution to integrate with a platform mission system
using industry standard interfaces.
KEY BENEFITS
Excellent performance
Low cost of ownership
True multi-mode operation

SUPERIOR OPERATIONAL AVAILABILITY
Seaspray 7500E removes the impact of single point transmitter
failure inherent within conventional systems. The high power,
low MTBF single transmitter is replaced by multiple low power,
high MTBF TRMs within the array. Any TRM failures result
in graceful performance degradation rather than complete
system failure. Consequently, Seaspray 7500E delivers high
operational availability.
We have stood at the forefront of the airborne radar market
since the 1950s when the AI23 radar became the worlds
frst high power monopulse radar to enter squadron service.
Maintaining its leading position in the market, we have been
developing AESA technology since the early 1990s and now
have a range of AESA radar products available to meet the
airborne radar market requirements.
