MSTAR
MSTAR is a lightweight all-weather battlefield radar, able to detect helicopters, vehicles and infantry to a range in excess of 20 km.
Powered by a standard Army field battery, MSTAR is used by artillery Observation Parties (OPs) to detect where artillery shells are landing in relation to the target (fall of shot).
The electro-luminescent display shows ground that cannot be seen (dead ground) and the lay of the land (relief) and can visibly represent the past movements of the enemy (target track history).
The 30 kg radar can also be mounted in a vehicle, such as the Warrior Observation Post Vehicle (Warrior OPV).
