 NEW DELHI: An Indian company today claimed to have indigenously developed four advanced dual-use radar systems capable of 3D bird detection and deterrence, besides UAV tracker and foliage penetration, a first for the domestic defence industry. The radars would have a global launch in the upcoming Aero India 2015 air show in Bengaluru.

"OIS Advanced Technology has the IP rights for these four radars. We are launching these advanced radar systems for global markets, in essence taking Indian intellectual property and manufactured product to advance our expanded vision of taking Make in India to the world," Sanjay Bhandari, Founder- Chairman and Managing Director of the firm said here.

  2. 3D Multi-function, Multi-mode UAV Detection and Tracking and Air Surveillance Radar System. Unlike most air surveillance radars today, it includes a unique Sense-N-Avoid feature to identify UAVs that may be on a collision course, allowing the controller to take remedial action, the firm said.  The company claims that it can detect a small UAV up to 25 kms and fighter aircraft up to 60 kms.
  3. Foliage Penetration Minefield, IED and Dismount Detection Radar System which the company claims can identify people with weapons and other assets hidden under foliage from a fixed-wing aircraft or UAV installed with this radar. With product availability slated for year-end, this system can also detect mines and buried IEDs to help sanitise routes and discover minefields, it said. Indian security forces have felt the need for such radars especially during anti-Naxal operations in dense jungles of Chattisgarh where even satellites have failed to give proper coverage.
  4. Portable Ground Surveillance Radar System for both military and homeland security applications
He stressed that the radars have been tested and have proved their capabilities. He said that all these radars are indigenously built and the quantity of imported components is about 25 per cent but not the critical systems.

Some International Competitors

DeTect

MERLIN Aircraft Birdstrike Avoidance Radars - bird strike prevention, flight safety, BASH management, bird-aircraft collision avoidance
DeTect's MERLIN Aircraft Birdstrike Avoidance Radar system is the first and only production bird strike radar system and is the most advanced and widely-used technology available for bird-aircraft strike hazard (BASH) management and for real-time detection, tracking and alerting of hazardous bird activity at commercial airports, military airfields, and military training and bombing ranges. The MERLIN avian radar is proven, operational technology with over 180 MERLIN systems currently operating at sites worldwide in aviation safety and environmental applications. 

SRC

The BSTAR™ avian radar is designed to detect avian targets over airport operating areas as well as outside the fence. It provides fully automatic 3-D detection, location, tracking and target classification of birds and aircraft. It enables you to visualize hazard warnings through a configurable and integrated 3-D Google Earth® display, providing you with bird altitude and biomass readings. A new hazard warning capability enables the user to identify high threat areas, such as approach and departure corridors, and monitors those regions of concern.





BSTAR Radar Models

  • BSTAR-2 Radar
    For applications where there is minimum infrastructure available. It is the smallest, lightest, least expensive BSTAR radar.
  • BSTAR-3 Radar
    For applications where better performance is necessary and slightly more infrastructure is available.

BSTAR Avian Surveillance Software

The BSTAR avian surveillance software is included in the price of an BSTAR radar. SRC offers owners of the AN/TPQ-49 and AN/TPQ-50 radar platforms with the ability to purchase software that provides air surveillance or avian surveillance capabilities. Learn more about the LSTAR and BSTAR software.
