The new APG-81 active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar has met and exceeded its performance objectives, successfully tracking long-range targets as part of the first mission systems test flights of Lockheed Martin's F-35B.
In August 2005 the APG-81 radar was flown for the first time aboard Northrop Grumman and BAE System's BAC 1-11 airborne laboratory. Since then the radar system has accumulated over 300 flight hours, maturing all five blocks of software.
The Block 0.5 radar software installed in the radar used during the recent F-35 flight with F-35B BF-04 incorporates 60 percent of the radar software to be delivered and provides important capabilities.
