Products

Highly precise theater radar developed by the Strategic Capabilities Office to support the Hypervelocity Gun Weapon System and other applications. The enhanced radar features are multi-mission and include: long-range, high-precision, 360-degree search and track, and advanced interceptor datalink capabilities.

Customer: Strategic Capabilities Office

Prototype radar to support the Hypervelocity Gun Weapon System and other applications. The PFCR was labeled “the most accurate radar ever built” by the Strategic Capabilities Office.

Customer: Strategic Capabilities Office

Precision Tracking System (PTS) to provide truth data for Coyote rocket-boosted interceptor with a kinetic payload developed for point-defense against Group 1 and Group 3 UAS threats. The C-RAM was developed for the Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System Product Management Office (PdM C-UAS) under the Program Executive Office: Missiles and Space (PEO M&S).

Customer: PEO M&S

Developed under the Army Technology Objective Integrated Demonstration (ATO-ID) program to serve as the fire control radar with the EAPS 50mm gun. The system detected incoming threats, cued the gun, determined appropriate aimpoint, commanded fire and communicated with the interceptor for course correction and detonation to engage the target.

Customer: U.S. Army’s Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC)

Developed a Precision Tracking System (PTS) architecture to fuse track and interceptor data from two radar panels into a palletized system for a U.S. Navy development. The PPS was designed to protect non-combatant logistics and surface vessels against drone and small boat threats.

Customer: U.S. Navy

The Aerial Threat Defeat (ATD) program developed a battery-powered mobile PTS system capable of searching, detecting, identifying, and tracking Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) threats. TA integrated the PTS system into U.S. fire control radars with a Republic of Korea (ROK)-developed countermeasure weapon system through interface with the Armaments Research Development Engineering Center (ARDEC) to develop a Precision Targeting Unit (PTU). TA evaluated performance capabilities of the integrated system at test sites outside the continental United States.

Customer: U.S. Army DEVCOM

Dual face PTS radar sensor that provides short-range weapon fire control for ship defense in littoral waters. The 180DRI searches and acquires targets over a 180-degree azimuth sector. As part of the program, TA demonstrated a technique to operate two adjacent interferometers without mutual interference.

Customer: U.S. Army DEVCOM

The originating program for the current PTS family of radars was the U.S. Army’s Crusader Self Propelled Howitzer program. The system tracked over 2000 projectiles during a two-year period and maintained alignment during shock and blast overpressure from more than 7000 rounds fired. Eight systems were manufactured and delivered.

Customer: U.S. Army

Integrated a PTS radar sensor onto a large tactical Stryker vehicle to support the development of High Energy Lasers (HEL) to defeat threats from enemy Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) with a low cost-per-shot advantage.

Customer: U.S. Army

Provided accurate tracking of artillery, drones, and other targets at short to medium range.

Customer: U.S. Army and other U.S. Service Ranges

Provided accurate tracking of artillery, drones and other targets at medium to long range.

Customer: U.S. Army, Sandia National Labs, and other U.S. Service Ranges

A long-range, highly accurate radar interferometer for long-range tracking applications.

Customer: U.S. Army and other U.S. Service Ranges

Provided range instrumentation radar data collection for C-RAM testing since November 2004. The Precision Tracking System (PTS) interferometer was used by the C-RAM program office to provide test range instrumentation truth data for evaluating the performance of the current C-RAM Phalanx-based weapon system.

Customer: U.S. Army C-RAM Program Office

Executed rapid prototyping of a PTS radar sensor for the Army’s Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO) to allow increased range and improved accuracy for the M777 howitzer. The PTS radar sensor was designed to track and guide outgoing 155mm projectiles to 70 kilometers. TA developed and demonstrated the transceiver technology to guide an XM1113 projectile.

Customer: U.S. Army DEVCOM

Fabricated two PTS radar sensors to support land-based rail gun testing and development. The U.S. Navy Radar (NRAD) radar sensors also provided target detection, tracking, and impact point to develop and register hypervelocity gun weapons system projectiles. The NRAD system continues to be used at Navy ranges.

Customer: U.S. Navy and the Strategic Capabilities Office

Developed an upgrade to convert from a single large power amplifier to 12 modular power amplifiers. TA developed a 12:1 microwave power combiner and replaced liquid cooling with air cooling on the AN/TPQ-37 to enhance its reliability and maintainability. The TPQ-37 RMI extends system service life and significantly reduces customer lifecycle costs.

Upgraded: AN/TPQ-37 Radar System

Developed and manufactured a receiver/exciter prototype, pre-production and production units for the Thales Raytheon Systems (TRS) to support the U.S. Army evolution and extend firefinder service life.

Upgraded: AN/TPQ-37 Radar System

Technovative Applications has a 20-year history of designing, developing, and manufacturing subsystems for large military aerospace OEM customers.

Technovative Applications designs and develops a broad range of adjunct transceiver modules for munitions.

TA plays a pivotal role in the supply of critical customer-designed components across a broad range of programs for U.S. aerospace and DoD customers.
