\n ONTARIO, Calif.<\/span>
\n <\/span>, May 6, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Raytheon, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business, has successfully completed the first flight test of its PhantomStrike<\/a>\u00a0radar on its Multi-Program Testbed aircraft in Ontario<\/span>, California<\/span>. \u00a0PhantomStrike successfully tracked several airborne targets and accurately mapped the terrain.<\/p>\n

PhantomStrike is a first-of-its-kind fully air-cooled, fire-control radar that’s designed to provide long-range threat detection, tracking and targeting. At nearly half the cost of a typical fire control radar, it delivers superior radar capability due to its faster, more agile digital beam, advanced target detection and resistance to jamming.<\/p>\n

“The threat environment is evolving, and this test demonstrates how PhantomStrike can make enhanced situational awareness available to a broader set of our partners and allies \u2013 offering unparalleled performance and potential U.S. weapons integration \u2013 at an affordable price,” said Bryan Rosselli<\/span>, president of Advanced Products and Solutions at Raytheon. “This next-generation radar dramatically changes how we identify and respond to threats.”<\/p>\n

PhantomStrike is a gallium nitride (GaN) powered radar that enables aircrew to see farther. It’s designed for a range of platforms, including uncrewed and light-attack aircraft, fighter jets, helicopters and ground-based towers. It harnesses the fire control power of a fighter in its lightest form factor ever \u2013 weighing nearly half of a modern active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar.<\/p>\n

Production of the radars takes place in\u00a0Forest, Mississippi;\u00a0Tucson, Arizona<\/span>; and\u00a0Scotland, with support from Raytheon UK.<\/p>\n
