A fully digital AESA radar with fixed panels, Sea Fire provides surveillance and fire control for high-end warfare conditions against a wide spectrum of targets ranging from UAS', sea skimmers, hovering helicopters to ballistic missiles.

Most advanced and compact Air Surveillance and Defense solution

Compact solution

One main radar offering surveillance and fire control to give today’s light frigates the power of destroyers
Enables the ASTER missile system

Designed from the onset to best support the ASTER family of missiles
Crown Jewel of technology

With its fully digital antenna using the output of each individual receiving channels, it processes astonishing amounts of data to feed the most advanced algorithms

A real game changer

The Sea Fire radar system offers simultaneous long-range 3D surveillance, air traffic management, horizon search, surface surveillance, and fire control for ASTER missiles. It provides early warning of attacks, with over 300 km air coverage, detecting and tracking over 800 objects at up to 90° elevation. Thanks to fully digital software-controlled processing, it ensures superior performance and high redundancy for optimised mission availability.

In today’s environment, navies are increasingly confronted by high-intensity warfare, demanding more assets to be capable of responding swiftly to evolving threats—even as manpower limitations restrict fleet expansion. Sea Fire provides navies around the globe with a compact, Aster-capable Multi-Function Radar system, delivering reliable defence against sophisticated threats and ensuring sustained operational effectiveness well into the future.

With digitisation at antenna element level, Sea Fire is a true Software Defined Radar allowing the introduction of a new functionality with just a single software change. The Digital Twin, a fully representative replica of the radar, is used to test performance in response to new target behaviors and complex scenarios. This powerful digital tool has proved itself as an invaluable asset for development & qualification, and will be a vital tool for future upgrades.

Sea Fire incorporates a high level of internal redundancy, including multiple transmitter-receiver channels and power supplies. Maintenance is streamlined through features such as the BITE, which links directly to the electronic maintenance manual complete with clear illustrations and instructional videos. All Line Replaceable Units are accessible from inside the ship, and crucially, while one panel undergoes maintenance, the other panels remain fully operational.
