Raytheon Equips Autonomous USAF Jet with Compact PhantomStrike Radar

RTX Corporation has announced that its Raytheon business has received a contract from the U.S. Air Force to equip the autonomous X-62A Variable In-flight Simulation Test Aircraft (VISTA) with the PhantomStrike® radar. The PhantomStrike is a compact, air-cooled fire-control radar that is smaller, lighter, and more power-efficient than current AESA radars, while delivering advanced capabilities such as digital beam forming, multimode functionality, and interleaved ground and air targeting. This innovation utilizes GaN technology and is manufactured at a lower cost than traditional radars. The results of this research and development have been announced and the radar will be integrated into the VISTA test aircraft as part of ongoing efforts to enhance autonomous aircraft capabilities for the U.S. Air Force.
