Active Phased Array Radar (APAR): Competitive Landscape

Key players operating in the APAR market are Thales Nederland, Anokiwaves, China Electronics Technology Group Corporation, and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. Thales Nederland is a major key player operating in the Active Phased Array Radar (APAR). APAR is typically paired with Thales Nederland's SMART-L passive electronically scanned array radar (which operates at L band frequencies). SMART-L is a long-range Volume Search Radar (VSR) that is able to provide volume search and tracking out to 480 km. The combination of the two radars, one at the X-Band frequency (in APAR) and one at the L-Band frequency (in SMART-L PESA), provides optimal combination of complementary capabilities. The Thales Nederland’s APAR systems are operational in naval defense of Germany, Denmark, and the Netherlands.
