Product Description: The ELM-2026B Very Short Range Air Defense Radar (VSHORAD) by IAI ELTA is an advanced X-Band radar system designed for the detection and tracking of airborne targets, including low radar cross-section (RCS) and low-flying objects such as fighter aircraft, ultra-lights, and UAVs. This fifth-generation radar features a lightweight, transportable design with a pulse-Doppler solid-state electronically scanned array. It utilizes Digital Beam Forming (DBF) to provide multi-beam elevation coverage and 360° azimuth coverage through antenna rotation, ensuring precise measurements of target velocity, range, azimuth, and elevation angles. The ELM-2026B can function as a local air defense system, offering early warning and target tracking for surface-to-air missile systems, and can be installed either as a fixed unit or mounted on a vehicle for enhanced mobility.
