EQ-36 Counterfire Target Acquisition Radar

It's about the Soldier... Lockheed Martin's EQ-36 radar was designed to replace the aging TPQ-36 & TPQ-37 medium-range radars. With its ability to detect, classify, track and determine the location of enemy fire such as mortars, artillery and rockets, this radar will give our solders enhanced capabilities when they are under attack. In a statement made by Carl Banner, vice president and general manager of Lockheed Martin's Radar Systems business,"EQ-36 is about the Soldier ... the sooner we field this solution, the sooner it can start saving lives." With this statement in mind, SPI played a key role in supporting the program's aggressive schedule by designing and building a complete system's worth of power supplies within twelve (12) weeks! The power supplies we provided were designed with state of the art patent pending* technology which cancels out all harmonic power line frequencies on the output ripple, thus eliminating the need for additional output LC filters. This provides improved reliability and a significant weight savings which was critical to the programs needs.

AN/TPS-59/FPS-117 Radar:

Developed for the United States Ballistic Missile Defense Organization and the United States Marine Corps, the TPS-59 is a phased array, 3-dimensional, transportable air search radar which was designed to operate with HAWK and Patriot. It is the most cost effective early warning, situational awareness and TMD system currently available. Engineered to be as versatile as the TPS-59/FPS-117 family of solid-state radars themselves, SPI's latest design effort powers the Signal Processor cabinet used in these high tech radars. Using COTS technology, our Model LMCO-1366-SYS was designed, developed and delivered in less than 14 weeks. This is another example of a major defense contracror's confidence in SPI's design and manufacturing abilities.

JSTARS
