Display Modes
  • Aircraft heading reference
  • North reference
  • Ground reference
  • Display offset
These modes help operators determine the range and bearing of targets and allow for display offsetting.

Operating Modes
  • Surface search with sea-clutter rejection/terrain mapping
  • Weather alert and avoidance
  • Radar beacon interrogation and identification
  • Test mode with continuous Built-in-Test (BIT)

System Design and Capabilities
The RDR-1700A is suitable for maritime patrol, surveillance, rescue missions, and precision terrain mapping. It consists of four main components: Receiver/Transmitter, Interface unit, Radar indicators/control panel, and Antenna array/drive. It supports long-range navigation updates, target position transmission, and a 20-target Track-While-Scan processor.

RDR-1700A Search, Surveillance and Weather Avoidance Radar System Continuing our reputation of superior radar systems, Telephonics’ search, surveillance and weather avoidance radar is the ideal choice for fixed- or rotary-wing maritime surveillance platforms. Mission Success Starts With a Clear Vision Telephonics’ RDR-1700A radar is a lightweight, X-band and 360° digital color system offering standard display modes of: Aircraft heading reference North reference Ground reference Display offset These modes, along with target marker capabilities, allow operators to determine range and bearing (latitude/longitude) of a target from the aircraft and relative range and bearing between targets. The system also has the capability to offset the sweep center to any location on the display and provides four operating modes: urface search with sea-clutter rejection/ S terrain mapping Weather alert and avoidance Radar beacon interrogation and identification Test mode with continuous Built-in-Test (BIT) The RDR-1700A interfaces with aircraft navigation systems to display radar returns, search patterns, waypoints and flight log information. System Design and Capabilities The RDR-1700A is designed for fixed- or rotary-wing aircraft engaged in maritime patrol, surveillance, rescue missions and precision terrain mapping. The system may be configured in numerous system configurations, but the major components consist of four Line Replaceable Units (LRUs): Receiver/Transmitter (R/T) Interface unit Radar indicators or radar control panel Antenna array and antenna drive Telephonics Corporation | 815 Broad Hollow Road | Farmingdale, New
