ACTIVE ELECTRONICALLY SCANNED ARRAY (AESA) FIRE CONTROL RADAR RAVEN ES-05 is a high performance AESA radar designed for the Saab Gripen NG swing role fighter that builds on over 60 years of fire control radar experience. RAVEN ES-05 has been designed in close collaboration with Saab. RAVEN ES-05 features an innovative roll-repositionable AESA antenna to provide a full ±100º field of regard allowing maximum situational awareness and platform survivability. This Wide Field of Regard (WFoR) allows the aircraft to turn away after missile launch, whilst still maintaining datalinks to the missile. The highly reliable AESA transmit-receive module technology incorporated in RAVEN ES-05 significantly improves system availability leading to reduced lifecycle costs.
