Australian Border Surveillance Aircraft to Get Raytheon’s SeaVue Radars
Raytheon will equip Australian border surveillance aircraft with its latest SeaVue Multi-Role radar under a contract with Cobham Special Mission.
Under the contract, the company will upgrade Cobham’s fleet of Dash 8 fixed-wing aircraft to the most advanced version of its SeaVue multi-domain surveillance radar in support of Australian border protection operations.
SeaVue MR will bring long-range, high-altitude surveillance capabilities to the special mission fixed-wing aircraft used to patrol the oceans surrounding Australia’s shores as part of the world’s largest outsourced civil maritime surveillance operation.
Older versions of SeaVue radar have been utilized to patrol the country’s vast 8.2-million-square-kilometer Exclusive Economic Zone – which includes oil and gas fields, shipping lanes, and fisheries.
SeaVue maritime surveillance radars currently fly on both manned and unmanned aircraft.
