The AM-350S is a Pakistani S-band active electronically scanned array (AESA) 3-dimensional air search radar developed jointly by NRTC and Blue Surge.[1][2][3]
Overview
[edit | edit source]The AM-350S was revealed to the public during the 2024 IDEAS expo in Karachi based on the Hino 500 truck. It is a gallium nitride (GaN)-based active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar with digital beamforming capabilities with a surveillance range of 350km and has a 360° FOV and flexible elevation features, enabling it to monitor altitudes of up to 60,000 feet.[4]
It has resilient anti-jamming capabilities with frequency hopping, vector control, and side-lobe suppression. Being an AESA-based system, the AM-350S can leverage its multiple TRMs to emit in different or unique frequencies in one pulse, making it more difficult for an enemy ECM systems to single out a particular frequency for jamming.[4]
