  • Abstract
    Modern phased array radar has changed national defense and the battlefield. The agility of the antenna beam of phased array radar is the key characteristic that has facilitated this change, coupled with the growth in processing, communication and presentation of data for decision making. This paper describes the modern battlefield and airborne phased array radar that are manufactured by Northrop Grumman Corporation, Electronic Systems, located in Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
