IDEAS 2024: Pakistan-developed long-range air surveillance radar system showcased
Experts hope Pakistan will soon be able to build its complete air defense system


Karachi: Pakistan has showcased its long-range air surveillance radar system for the first time at the ongoing International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS) in Karachi.
Director Blue Search Private Limited Awais Rauf said that drones and ultra-high-speed missile systems have changed how wars are fought in the modern era. Be it the war between Russia and Ukraine or any other conflict in the world, the world is seeing that missile systems and drones are playing a key role in every situation, from monitoring military transport to devastating attacks on enemy combat targets.
He stated that radar is the most important tool for anticipating enemy attacks and monitoring air borders. Pakistan has also been using radar systems imported from other countries for this purpose and has faced international sanctions. However, Pakistan has now developed its own long-range air surveillance radar system.
Awais Rauf added that the Pakistani-made AM350S radar system, which can monitor the air up to 450 kilometers, is installed on a mobile platform that can be quickly moved anywhere.
This is a unique project that NRTC is taking forward in collaboration with the private sector. Pakistan's friendly countries have also expressed interest in this state-of-the-art radar system.
Experts hope Pakistan will soon be able to build its complete air defense system.
