ANTPQ-36 Counter artillery radar
The AN/TPQ-36 consists of an antenna transceiver trailer, a generator and an active control bunker containing the intercom and paper map display. The AN/TPQ-36 fixed antenna scans a rapid beam sequence along the horizon, forming an electronic radar curtain over a 90-degree area. Any target that penetrates the veil will trigger an immediate verification beam. Upon verification, an automatic tracking sequence begins. While tracking any single target, the radar continues to scan, locate and track other targets. The AN/TPQ-36 has been upgraded with a fully compliant radar processor. The radar processor is common between the AN/TPQ-36 and AN/TPQ-37 Radars. The new processor reduces the number of circuit cards from 9 to 3. Customers benefit greatly from a significant reduction in cost per unit and unlimited future growth potential. Open LAN-based design accommodates future changes.
The AN/TPQ-36 is an electronically controlled radar, meaning the radar antenna does not actually move while in operation. However, the radar antenna can be moved manually if required. The system can also be operated in friendly fire mode to determine the accuracy of battery return fire, or to conduct radar registration or mean point of impact calibration for friendly artillery.
