Industry team Lockheed Martin and ARINC submitted its proposal July
30 for a new, transportable air traffic control radar system that will
enable Air Force and Air National Guard units to quickly establish
tactical military or disaster-relief airfield operations around the
world. They will compete against Raytheon, which submitted its proposal
earlier this month for the Air Force’s Deployable Radar Approach Control
(D-RAPCON) program.
Under the D-RAPCON program, the Air Force will procure 19 modular ATC surveillance radar systems, which can deploy within 48 hours worldwide by C-130 aircraft and take less than six hours to set up. Older, portable ATC systems presently in use are becoming maintenance challenges. The total program value is expected to be more than $400 million.
