IMSAR unveils longer-range SAR radar

IMSAR has unveiled an extended-range of its synthetic aperture radar (SAR).

“The NSP-5 ER leverages the innovative functionality of IMSAR’s NSP-5 product line into an extended-range high-resolution imager,” said an IMSAR news release.

“While the NSP-5 ER is larger than the rest of the NSP-5 line, it maintains a SWaP and cost footprint that is the smallest of its class.”

“The NSP-5 ER is weatherized and engineered to handle more power for higher-altitude imaging on larger, faster aircraft like the King Air, PC-12, Caravan, and Grey Eagle; successfully providing these manned airborne platforms with ISR capabilities that were previously unavailable to some customers,” IMSAR said.
