sea master 400 (SM400) is Thales’ first non-rotating E/F air- and surface surveillance radar. The radar consists of four active phased array panels using Active Electronically Scanning Array (AESA) technology. The new 3D dual axis multi-beam concept enables reliable detection of a broad range of targets in complex environments. The system is almost zero-touch as all operational tasks operate simultaneously and autonomously.

engagement oF a wide range oF air and sUrFaCe targetsThe 3D dual axis multi-beam concept uses detection beams that are simultaneously positioned in elevation as well in azimuth direction. With the achieved increase of Doppler resolution, the SM400 detects a wide range of targets. It detects UAVs, stealth fighters and hypervelocity missiles even in sever clutter conditions and without sacrificing update rate. The system offers excellent performance under all weather conditions. In littoral as well as blue water environments and against asymmetric threats.

high Update rates in the total searCh VolUmeThis non-rotating AESA radar simultaneously applies different search patterns, optimized for a broad range of target types. This way target track update rates increase as target range decreases, within the entire azimuth and elevation coverage of the radar. It enables detection of high maneuvering targets, fast reaction time and guidance support.

simple operation by an all-in-one modeThe SEA MASTER 400 performs all its operational tasks simultaneously and autonomously. The system is very easy to operate. You do not have to switch modes during operationand the training is minimal. Reduce manning is a major benefit.

main FeatUres

• 3D Dual Axis Multi-beam with instantaneous monopulse accuracy in azimuth and elevation

• Instantaneous Doppler processing for the full range, azimuth and elevation coverage

• Active tracking for high priority targets • High update rate in the total search volume • Fully automatic detection of and fast track initiation on air

and surface targets • Slow Air Target Surveillance • Low false track rate • Dedicated ECCM techniques • Multipath suppression using receive beams under the

horizon • Plot fusion of SM400 target data with IFF data • Redundant design and high mission availability • Scalable through easy extension of transmit and receive

modules, and/or software upgrades
