Description

This research is an overview of program funding and contract activity for the United States (U.S.) Department of Defense (DoD) Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) programs and activities. Radar technology transmits radio waves which bounce off objects in their path and are used to determine the range, altitude, direction, and speed of both moving and fixed objects for indications, warning, and targeting. Programs and contracts that have been designated primarily for radar technology functions are included. Program funding is derived from the U.S. DoD FY 2011 request and includes the portions of Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) funding.
