Huneed Technologies and GA-ASI Ink MoU to Develop Radar System

Our Bureau - : Oct 19, 2023 - : 5:22 pm

In yet another example of collaboration between American and South Korean defence firms, Huneed Technologies and General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc. (GA-ASI) have signed a memorandum of understanding to develop a radar system that can be used for operations at altitudes of 13 kilometers and above.

According to South Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, the two firms will jointly develop the high-resolution observation radar for drones, with Huneed supplying a homegrown active electronically scanned array (AESA) antenna. The MoU was signed at the ongoing Show.

The antenna is capable of detecting and tracking multiple targets simultaneously and extensively because the beam of radio waves is electronically steered to points in different directions without the antenna having to be moved.

“The agreement indicates that South Korean defense firms’ technology competitiveness has now reached a level that allows them to become key partners with global aeronautical defense companies,” First Vice Industry Minister Jang Young-jin said during the signing ceremony.

In March last year, Huneed Technologies had signed a contract to manufacture and supply Circuit Card Assemblies (CCA) to GA-ASI for its range of unmanned aircraft. Menawhile, GA-ASI is highlighting the capabilities of the MQ-9B SkyGuardian/SeaGuardian at the Show.
