Sea Giraffe 4A – long range multifunction radar
The Sea Giraffe 4A combines long-range air surveillance and defence with full horizon coverage on surface targets and is the ultimate sensor for mission success and survivability throughout the whole scale of conflict in any naval environment.
With Sea Giraffe 4A, the commanding officer will access very high situation awareness through simultaneous air and surface surveillance together with uncompromised self-defence capabilities. This new radar offers exceptional range, performance and multi-functionality in a single compact solution.
The Sea Giraffe 4A scans the total 360 degrees search volume up to 70 degrees with 60 rpm and provides an unparalleled 3D target update rate, along with high altitude coverage and accuracy. The radar provides a simultaneous all-weather coverage against air and surface targets from low, slow and small targets (UAVs), to fast moving fighters and missiles, RAM target and jammer strobes, at all altitudes and in severe clutter. The surface channel gives a high probability of detecting very small targets in close proximity to the surface, for example rib boats. The surface channel is also equipped with a high-resolution surface surveillance capability specifically designed to detect gun fire splashes in order to provide data for gun fire corrections (for example support pre- and in action calibration).
