Microwave Applications phase shifters chosen for passive electronically scanned array radar

摘要

U.S. Navy researchers needed ferrite phase shifter modules for advanced radar development work. They found their solution from Microwave Applications Group Inc. in Santa Maria, Calif. Officials of the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division in Lakehurst, N.J., announced a $10.2 million contract to Microwave Applications for 1,800 ferrite phase shifter RF and microwave modules, which researchers will use to develop a closed-loop passive electronically scanned array radar system.
