Raytheon has successfully demonstrated the advanced tracking capabilities of its AN/SPY-6(V)4 radar in a maritime environment. The radar, developed in partnership with the U.S. Navy, successfully tracked air and surface targets under various conditions during testing at the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Hawaii. This milestone validates years of modeling and simulation work and will help refine the system for future testing and deployment on over 60 U.S. Navy ships.
Raytheon, a division of RTX (NYSE: RTX), has successfully demonstrated the advanced tracking capabilities of its AN/SPY-6(V)4 radar in a maritime environment. The milestone was achieved during recent testing at the Advanced Radar Detection Laboratory located at the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Hawaii, in partnership with the U.S. Navy. The radar successfully tracked air and surface targets under various conditions, validating years of modeling and simulation work.The tests, conducted over open water, showcased the radar's advanced tracking capabilities across different mission scenarios. The first live data set for the (V)4 configuration was collected during these tests, which will help refine the system for future testing and eventual shipboard deployment. Barbara Borgonovi, president of Naval Power at Raytheon, stated, "The successful live demonstration of the SPY-6(V)4 radar is a major step forward in advancing the capabilities of today's fleet and supporting allied operations worldwide" [1].
This is the next variant in the U.S. Navy's SPY-6 Family of Radars to undergo live maritime testing. The program will continue with testing and system enhancements, leveraging common hardware and software across other variants to ensure seamless integration and scalability. Over the next decade, the SPY-6 radar is expected to be deployed on more than 60 U.S. Navy ships, enhancing defense against air, surface, and ballistic threats [1].
