AND
Operational requirements have become more stringent
Advanced radar techniques are mainly for :
More stringent known in advanced and specified operational requirements
lesser price for same performance
17 Air Systems Division
Constraints on the possibilities for sharing (2/3)
Economic considerations
improved efficient filtering increases costs
clean transmitter integration is expensive
signal processing hardware : low cost but more costs on the development side
legacy radars
Taking sharing as a requirement early in the design is cost effective
