EL/M-2052

The Elta 2052 is an advanced airborne Active electronically scanned array fire control radar for fighter aircraft. It is suitable for F-15, MiG-29, Mirage 2000, LCA Tejas and Su-30.The EL/M-2052 is an advanced Airborne Fire Control Radar (FCR) designed for air-to-air superiority and advanced strike missions. The FCR is based on fully solid-state active phase array technology. This new technology enables the radar to achieve a longer detection range, high mission reliability and a multi-target tracking capability of up to 64 targets. The EL/M-2052 radar incorporates ELTA’s decades of field-proven experience with real operational feedback from Israeli Air Force combat pilots.

The EL/M-2052 radar introduces new dimensions to the Air-to-Air, Air-to-Ground and Air-to-Sea operation modes of the aircraft. In the Air-to-Air mode, the radar enables a very long-range multi targets detection and enables several simultaneous weapon deliveries in combat engagements. In Air-to-Ground missions, the radar provides very high resolution mapping (SAR), surface moving target detection and tracking over RBM, DBS and SAR maps in addition to A/G ranging. In Air-to-Sea missions the radar provides long-range target detection and tracking, including target classification capabilities (RS, ISAR).
