Tor-M1 Search Radar (Scrum Half) Russian 3D Search Radar
9S18
S-band cage mechanical scan. Associated with Tor-M1 (9M330). Antenna: 2.2 x 1.1m. Frequency: 2-4 GHz. --- Description from Radartutorial.eu --- Source: https://www.radartutorial.eu/19.kartei/02.surv/karte093.en.html The 9S18M “Kupol-M” (Cyrillic: «Купол-М»; NATO designation: “Snow Drift”) is a mobile 3-D acquisition radar operating frequency agile in the S band (IEEE designation) or in the F band (NATO designation). The radar uses a rectangular phased array antenna with mechanical rotation in azimuth and an electronically steered pencil beam in elevation. The transmitters’ waveform is alternate an unmodulated pulse and a pulse with linear intra-pulse frequency modulation (chirp). The radar can track up to 50 targets at a time, and provide target designation on six targets. It is used for target assignment for the 9K37 “Buk” air defense missile system (Cyrillic: «Бук М1»; NATO designation: SA-11 “Gadfly”). The radar was developed in 1977 and has been in the armament of some states of the former Soviet Union and Finland since 1980. Associated Weapon Systems: Тор-М1 (TOR-M1): 9М330 / 9M330
