Good video on today's Radar performance and threat managment

Looney11 · 03-14-07, 04:06 PM

Hi all,

Finally I stumbled across a good video showing what todays radar systems are capable of.

This video shows the Smart-L (Signaals Multibeam Acquiring Radar for Targetting - Large) and the APAR (Advanced Phased ARray) system working together to handle incoming threats.

Though the video is a bit "gung-ho" it does give a glimpse of what a present day radar system can and will do. Don't forget the combat managment computer below-decks though. Don't think a human controls the launch process, the human only releases the fire-inhibit switch, the rest is done by the computer. With the rest I mean target priorisations, classification, engagement and ofcourse detection.

The SMART-L system is presently the only EU system capable fo detecting, tracking and calculating a full ballistic trajectory for space-born vehicles, e.g. Space-shuttle, ISS but ofcourse also ICBMS. The other system capable of doing this (sort of) is the US SPY system.

Also an interesting view:

The IRSCAN detects and the Goalkeeper CIWS attacks an incoming missile (RL video)

Hope you enjoy the videos!

Perfect... :p

Also did you notice how shockwave from the missile raised water in quite large a radius ? Nice effect !

Those evil commies sure did try hard to kill that FFG

For a little while there I was convinced I was in some sort of techno drug-fuelled warehouse rave, with all the multi-coloured lights swinging around.

Indeed! Not quite Sh3 or Sh4 quality, but I'd be HAPPY with that water in DW!
