Northrop delivers first SABR radar for Taiwan F-16s
Citat:Northrop Grumman has delivered the first of several developmental radars sold to Taiwan as an upgrade for their Lockheed Martin F-16s.
The APG-83 scaleable agile beam radar (SABR) will replace Northrop’s mechanically-scanned APG-68 system in Taiwan’s F-16s.
Northrop delivered the first SABR – an active electronically scanned array (AESA) – within 16 months of contract award by Taiwan.
The AESA radar upgrade is a key element of Lockheed’s “F-16V” upgrade concept. It also includes a new mission computer and cockpit display upgrades.
Northrop designed SABR to offer simultaneous air-to-air and air-to-ground search and track capability. It is similar to AESA technology developed for Northrop’s APG-77 radar installed on the Lockheed F-22 and APG-81 onboard the F-35.

Ovo sa isporukama novih radara za tajvanske F-16 je veoma interesantna vest.
Radi se o isporuci AESA radara APG-83 SABR, i to 144 komada po ukupnoj ceni 308M USD.
Ispada da je jedinicna cena radara oko 2,15M USD, sto je prava bagatela, imajuci u vidu cene konkurentskih modela.

Mislim da su to samo delovi koji se nadograđuju na postojeće radare, napajanje i hlađenje ostaju isti ako se dobro sećam pročitanog, menjaju se samo određeni delovi koji ujedno predstavljaju modernizaciju i nadogradnju na AESA
