EL/M-2106

EL/M-2106 ATAR (Advanced Tactical Acquisition Radar) is a solid state L band medium range tactical 3D radar with active electronically scanned array (AESA) in elevation.

History

The radar, developed by Elta Systems, detects a wide variety of low RCS target such as low velocity ultra-lights and UAVs. [1]

The radar can track up to 500 targets simultaneously, has 360° operation and all-weather day and night ability and includes advanced electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) to operate in dense hostile electronic warfare environments.

It is a field proven design that has operated in undesirable environments. The range of detection for a fighter aircraft is 70–110 km. It can detect hovering helicopters at a range of 40 km and UAVs at 40–60 km.[2]

Used on the SPYDER air defense system.

gollark: Update update: unfortunately, I cannot achieve low enough validation error to make this actually usable. Probably it would work better if the OCR thing were more accurate (there are issues with spacing), and if I rated memes from a dataset as "good" or "bad" instead of having "good" and "bad" sets from separate places (but this would take too long). I might put the mostly nonfunctional thing on github or something.
gollark: Update on the automatic meme classification thing: after far too much time dealing with various dependencyish issues, my stuff is being run through CLIP and extremely janky OCR then a sentence embedding model. I will begin work on actually implementing a classifier once the script finishes running on everything.
gollark: I mean, it's probably a better metric than picking randomly.
gollark: Great, I'll go investigate these on the weekend or something.
gollark: Do you know more about that? I can't find any information on that easily.
