HENSOLDT Launch Quadome

HENSOLDT’s latest radar, the Quadome is a dual-mode, multi-mission surveillance radar for naval air- and surface surveillance. It provides naval forces and maritime security authorities unprecedented situational awareness and short reaction times.
 
Quadome builds on the reputation and track record of HENSOLDT’s naval tactical radar family, which has successfully sold over 100 units in 25 years.
Equipped with the latest technology, Quadome provides rapid response and high precision at an excellent price-performance ratio. Moreover, the new-generation radar features the latest active electronically steered antenna (AESA) technology.
 
Quadome features two main operational modes that simplify operator interaction and reduce operator workload. The surveillance mode is used for general surface and air surveillance, while the self-defence mode is employed for high-threat situations and target engagement, with helicopter support continuously available in either mode.
 
The radar is aimed at the global market for tactical naval radar systems, mainly targeting offshore patrol vessels (OPVs), corvettes, light frigates and support vessels.
 
Thanks to its compact size, relatively low mass and excellent price-performance ratio, the Quadome radar brings 3D air surveillance and air defence capabilities to vessels that may have only been fitted with 2D target-detection capability.
 
Designed for the modern operational needs in the naval domain, Quadome offers robust capabilities for the detection and tracking of small surface targets and accurate 3D tracking of small, low-flying, fast-moving air targets, ensuring effective threat evaluation, weapon assignment and a longer effector “keep-out” range due to fast track-initiation. It operates in C-Band for operationally advantageous reasons, offering the best compromise for small- and medium-sized vessels demanding high performance.
 
The radar has several benefits, such as lower life-cycle costs, reduced user effort due to lower workloads, training and skills and comprehensive modern support concepts. The product’s lifespan is also significantly extended with new-generation, future-proof technology that offers the ability to add new features as new threats emerge, using the software-defined architecture.
