AN/APG-77 AESA RADAR

Northrop Grumman Corporation is the world leader in airborne fire control radars and the sole supplier for both USAF fighter platforms of the future: the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II. Northrop Grumman is unmatched as the largest producer of airborne fire control Electronically Scanned Arrays (ESAs).

Providing the F-22 Raptor with air-to-air and air-to-ground superiority, the AN/APG 77 AESA radar builds on Northrop Grumman's wealth of design experience with AESA fire control radars and sensors. Our mature production environment reflects decades of AESA development. We have continuously improved strong designs and reduced the cost while expanding capabilities that are reflected in the AN/APG 77 AESA radar.

This radar provides an unprecedented stealth capability in air-to-air combat, allowing the pilot to track and shoot at multiple threat aircraft before the adversary's radar detects the F-22 Raptor. Solid state-of-the-art technology and elimination of mechanical moving parts enables the AN/APG-77 to leap ahead of standards for system reliability and field sustainability.
