RADAR Display AND INTEGRATION

ARES leverages the same Processor LRU as Nemesis RADAR, which has been integrated with a modern mission system software and cockpit in the Tactical Air Support F-5 Advanced Tiger™. ARES tactical RADAR interface gives a vast array of control, display, and configurability options.

ARES is fully configurable to meet even the most challenging SWaP-C restrictions on 3rd and 4th Generation Aircraft and interfaces can accommodate a variety of mission systems, display types, and controls.
