omes for Airborne and
Weather Applications
Jaguar nose cone composite radome
DWR Radome at Kochi, Kerala DWR Radome installed
at Bhuj,Gujarat
Radome is a structural and
weatherproof enclosure protecting and become cost effective based on
the radar antenna while causing the choice of appropriate processing
minimal attenuation to the radar techniques. NAL has developed
signals. Fibre reinforced polymer cost competitive manufacturing
composite materials have emerged technologies for airborne and
as the designers’ choice for radomes ground based weather radomes of
due to their unique properties of strategic significance. Nose cone
high specific strength/stiffness, radome of Jaguar maritime aircraft
electromagnetic (EM) transparency, & Spherical radome for Doppler
light weight and non-corrosiveness. weather radar are the outcome
These materials can be moulded of the indigenous effort that have
into different geometries as required culminated successful technology
transfers to industry.
