Technological advances in the computing power of microprocessors will allow weapons locating and air defense radar capabilities to be integrated into a single platform. This innovation will have a synergistic effect by allowing the commander the ability to easily network air defense and weapons locating sensors into the intelligence sensor grid, and concurrently reduce the logistics footprint. The purpose of this research project is to examine the feasibility of developing a radar network architecture on a future battlefield that would reduce the force structure, lower acquisition cost, and improve logistics. In determining the feasibility of developing a cost effective networked radar architecture, material developers must take four factors into consideration: system requirements for the radar, application of network centric warfare, formulation of an integrated intelligence sensor grid, and the tactical employment of the radars within the battle space.
