The US Air Force is moving forward with a major new upgrade for the half-century-old Boeing B-52H fleet, focused on replacing the bomber's radar, which is roughly 30 years old.
The Northrop Grumman APQ-166 strategic radar is nearing the end of its useful life and will be replaced on 76 B-52Hs. The new system will perform all of the mission functions now performed by the APQ-166 mechanically scanned array, but provide new and enhanced capabilities.
