Type | Pulse-doppler airborne radar |
Frequency | Starting Envelope frequency around 9.86 GHz |
Range | 296.32 km (184.12 mi) |
Azimuth | ±10 degrees / ± 30 degrees / ± 60 degrees |
The AN/APG-68 radar is a long range (up to 296 kilometres [184 mi]) [1] Pulse-doppler radar designed by Westinghouse (now Northrop Grumman) to replace AN/APG-66 radar in the F-16 Fighting Falcon. After years of Service, AN/APG-68 radar currently being replaced on US Air Force F-16C/D Block 40/42 and 50/52 by the latest generation AN/APG-83 AESA radar. [2] [3]
The AN/APG-68(V)8 and earlier radar system consists of the following line-replaceable units:
The AN/APG-68(V)9
[4] radar system consists of the following
line-replaceable units:
The AN/APG-68(V)9 radar is the latest development. Besides the increase in scan range compared to the previous version, it has a Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) capability.
The APG-68(V)9 has equipped several variants, including the Egyptian Air Force, [5] Israeli Air Force, [6] Chilean Air Force, Republic of Singapore Air Force, [7] Turkish Air Force, [8] Royal Moroccan Air Force, [9] Greek Air Force, [10] Pakistan Air Force, Polish Air Force, [11] Royal Thai Air Force, [12] and Indonesian Air Force.
