Abstract
The authors describe a display processor unit (DPU) that develops display images for a multimode airborne radar system. The DPU described has a unique feature that allows display updates for a period of time when the radar is not transmitting. Once the radar image is formed, the information provided by the avionics system can reposition the display image. In this mode this aircraft is less vulnerable to detection by electronic counter measures. This feature also provides a significant improvement in display clarity during normal operation. The multimode airborne radar display modes, the equipment that generates the displays, and the technology used are also described
