For this role the ships are equipped with an advanced sensor and weapons suite. The primary sensors for this role are the long range surveillance radar SMART-L and the multi-function radar APAR. The SMART-L and APAR are highly complimentary, in the sense that SMART-L is a D band radar providing very long range surveillance while APAR is an I band radar providin...
