Here's What We Know

TRML-4D radars will be integrated into the IRIS-T SLM air defence system. The Ukrainian Armed Forces now have two surface-to-air missile systems, but the number will soon quadruple. The deal will be worth €100,000 ($108.3m). Deliveries of the four radars are scheduled for the end of this year.

TRML-4D is a state-of-the-art medium-range radar that operates in the C-band. The radar was developed in 2018. It is equipped with an electronically scanned active phased array antenna, which has a large number of Galium Nitride-based receiver/transmitter modules.

The Hensoldt radar system is capable of simultaneously tracking up to 1,500 targets at a maximum distance of 250 km. The radar can track ballistic missiles and fighters at ranges of up to 150 km and 60 km respectively.
