F-16 탑재형 APG-83 맞춤형 고속 빔 레이더 (SABR) AESA
SABR은 전세계에 배치된 구형 F-16 시리즈의 기존 전기 및 냉각 설비 여건 안에서 최적의 레이더 시스템을 구축함으로써 해당 F-16 편대의 임무 수행을 십 수 년 연장합니다. SABR은 2008년에 처음 배치된 이래 각종 비행 시험에서 공전의 "최초" 기록을 꾸준히 달성해 왔으며, 이제는 이 기록에 고차원 모의전투 시험에서 입증된 이력도 포함되었습니다. F-16 레이더 장착 업무를 40년 가까이 계속해 온 유일한 사격 관제 레이더 생산 기업으로서, 우리는 F-16 AESA 레이더 계획에 위험성 낮은 방안을 제시하는 유일한 공급자임을 자부합니다.
