The Office of Naval Research (ONR) has awarded Raytheon Company an $8.5 million base contract to design the Flexible Distributed Array Radar (FlexDAR), enabling dynamic multi-mission radars capable of executing a variety of functions including surveillance, communications and electronic warfare.
“Raytheon is a pioneer in radar development, pushing the limits of technology to achieve the best possible solutions for our customers,” said Paul Ferraro, vice president of Raytheon Integrated Defense Systems Advanced Technology Programs. “Migrating digital technologies closer to the front end of radars will allow for more re-configurability and ultimately more flexible radars resulting in game-changing improvements.”
