Defence Antenna Applications
Today’s modern radar and electronic warfare systems must cope with ever-changing requirements for frequency agility and large surveillance bandwidths. Plus, a new system class is needed for simulating threats. Calian supplies complete broadband, multi-aperture antenna systems for defence applications, including muti-octave feeds for RX and TX for surveillance, jamming and threat emitter applications.
Calian is a leader in providing end-to-end solutions for customers around the world. Our defence applications are designed, manufactured and tested in-house and installed internationally. Plus, with expertise in software defined solutions and satcom products, we can offer you a complete Earth-to-space-and-back solution you can count on.
Key Features

- Supports single, dual and tri-band feeds S- through Ka-band
Ideal for Defence Array Applications
Calian radar systems have been used in the DARC tech demo array. They offer advanced, 24/7, all-weather ground-based radar capabilities required on applications of strategic space defense. Theses radars systems provide global coverage for High Value Assets (HVA).
The systems can be configured for ultra-high-power transmitters and with multiple receiver options. Calian 1 to 15-meter antennas can support large high power transmitter enclosures mounted on the elevation axis which minimize power loss and raises the output power potential.
