SIP368 Pulse Radar

The Pulse Radar Trainer offers realistic training in radar techniques at low cost. The Trainer provides basic techniques in radar ranging, as well as in secondary IFF radar. The radar tracks three or more electronic targets whose range and speed of movement is simulated while its Azimuth is real. The computer screen provides both a sector scan and an A scan. The training equipment interfaces with a computer to provide computer-aided diagnostic training. The computer screen is Windows-based and the software contains an electronic system diagnostic section for troubleshooting. Approximately 100 hours of instruction.
