KRET: new radar will allow "taking X-rays" of aircraft located a few hundred kilometers

The radio-optical phased array arrays (ROFAR) of a new generation radar will allow to examine in detail the aircraft that are at a distance of 500 km, transmit RIA News a message from the advisor to the deputy general director of the Radio Electronic Technologies concern Vladimir Mikheev.

According to Mikheev, “radio-phased phased antenna arrays will significantly expand the capabilities of modern communications and radars — their weight will more than double, and their resolution will be increased tenfold.”

“ROFAR will allow us to see the aircraft, located in 500 kilometers, as if we were standing at the airfield 50 meters away from him, his portrait in video range. Moreover, if necessary, this technology will allow you to look into the aircraft itself, to find out what people and equipment are in it, because the signal can pass any obstacles, even meter-long lead walls. ”- he said.

“ROFAR are capable of making“ X-rays ”of airplanes thanks to the use of a wide range of frequencies penetrating to different depths inside the object,” the deputy director explained.

Such a radar can be equipped with the 5 generation fighter PAK FA.

“At the output of our work on ROFAR, we will receive a complete list of aircraft - manned and unmanned - which we plan to offer to equip with radars based on phased-in radio-optical antenna arrays. I think that the PAK FA will also be on this list and certain proposals will be issued on it, ”said Mikheev.

"ROFAR is capable of making" X-rays "of aircraft due to the use of a wide frequency range, penetrating to different depths into the object",

If they are not a military man, but a "passenger" to touch. People will go down the ladder, bald everywhere, like worms or not. The X-ray is all the same, which hits 500 km.

[jaguar]

An X-ray, after all, which hits 500 km. There is definitely no X-ray .... An X-ray through a meter wall of lead

[Skifotavr]

This, apparently, is about a part of the electromagnetic spectrum located on the border of thermal and radio emission. These fantastic opportunities in practice are likely to be realized not soon. Somewhere in Stalin’s forties about ordinary radars, Soviet experts said that soon with the help of them it would be possible to see a fly for kilometers.

[Tusv]

These fantastic opportunities in practice are likely to be realized not soon.

A year later, after the flight of Rust - "Black Day of the Air Defense" - every takeoff of Tsesna (well, a fly, ezhkin cat) and a course in our direction within a radius of 300 km on not fantastic equipment and not fantastic RTV were recorded. Gave 12 ready-made items per day knob down. It was in 1988. And now our engineers clucked chtoli? No! Meticulously invent fly swatters, so that we, the Pvoshniks keep the sky

I don't know what you mean by every takeoff of Tsesna within a radius of 300 km. If you mean the experimental two-jump over-the-horizon radar "Duga", then it was created not to monitor the "Tsesny", but as a means of early warning of a missile attack. And although with the help of it even takeoffs of small aircraft were observed, its accuracy was low, so that control over each "Cessna" was bikes. The fact that the development of conventional powerful radars does not stand still is understandable, but by so far fantastic capabilities I meant what is described in the article:

“ROFAR will allow us to see the aircraft located in 500 kilometers, as if we are standing in 50 meters from it at the airport, his portrait in the video range. Moreover, if necessary, this technology will allow you to look into the plane itself, to find out what people and equipment are in it, because the signal can go through any obstacles, even meter-long lead walls, ”he said.

“ROFAR are capable of making“ X-rays ”of airplanes thanks to the use of a wide range of frequencies penetrating to different depths inside the object,” the deputy director explained.

With the advent of a fundamentally new technology and the invention of new materials, this becomes possible in theory, and when it appears in practice - time will tell.

I don’t think so. Carrier in the same range of 3 cm (well, maybe an addition of 8 mm range) And "radio-optical" is most likely the principle of building the headlights themselves, when optical fibers are used to supply radiation to the elements of the grille with reverse demodulation from the optical range to the centimeter. There were publications on such.

In general, if this is not a lie, then it’s fantastic!

The idea of ​​using an ultra-wideband signal close in its characteristics to a lightning discharge was theoretically justified more than 10 years ago. At the same time, research began on the creation of an appropriate generator. Obviously now OCD has reached the finish line.
And X-rays have absolutely nothing to do with it. According to the theory, microwave waves propagate over the surface of conductors, but depending on the length and type of wave, they can penetrate to different depths. The longer the waves, the deeper they penetrate. And if in the meter range it is possible to achieve super-resolution, then you can really see the internal section of the aircraft in the plane directed to the radar.

In the decameter range, the depth of the skin layer for copper is tens of micrometers, and even less in the meter. Good luck with getting an internal cut of the plane in the plane aimed at the radar .

RUSSIAN Fighter of the 5th generation will be equipped with a photon radar

A radar station built on the basis of the radio-optical phased antenna array ROFAR can be used on any aircraft, including a 5th generation fighter T-50, an adviser to the first deputy general director of the Radioelectronic Technologies Concern (KRET, a state corporation) told reporters Rostec) Vladimir Mikheev.
“The result of the work carried out in KRET should be, in particular, a list of unmanned and manned aircraft, including aeronautics - airships and balloons, on which ROFARs can be installed to provide radar. I think the T-50 will also be in this lineup, ”said Mikheev.
He noted that the decision to install ROFARs on one or another military aircraft will be made by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation according to the results of testing new technologies.
KRET is commissioned by the Advanced Research Foundation to develop an active phased antenna array based on radio photonics for aircraft radars. 683,8 million rubles were allocated for the program. until 2019.http: //zagopod.com/blog/43077868534/Rossiyskiy-istrebitel-5-go-pokoleniya--

[Bayonet]

Quote: СРЦ П-15

After such irradiation, your "organ" for such body movements is unlikely to be capable

Meter wave exposure

High-intensity meter waves emitted by pulsed generators of meter radar stations with a pulsed power of more than a megawatt (such as a P-16 early warning station) and comparable with the length of the spinal cord of humans and animals, as well as the length of axons, disrupt the conductivity these structures, causing diencephalic syndrome (microwave disease). The latter leads to the rapid development (within a few months to several years) of full or partial (depending on the received radiation dose) irreversible paralysis of the human limbs, as well as a violation of the innervation of the intestine and other internal organs.

Decimeter wave exposure

Decimeter waves are comparable in wavelength with blood vessels, covering such organs of humans and animals as the lungs, liver and kidneys. This is one of the reasons why they cause the development of "benign" tumors (cysts) in these organs. Developing on the surface of blood vessels, these tumors lead to a cessation of normal blood circulation and disruption of organs. If such tumors are not removed in time by surgery, then the death of the body occurs. Decimeter waves of dangerous intensity levels are emitted by magnetrons of such radars as the P-15 mobile air defense radar, as well as radars of some aircraft.

Centimeter wave exposure

Powerful centimeter waves cause such diseases as leukemia - "leukemia", as well as other forms of malignant tumors in humans and animals. Waves of sufficient intensity for the occurrence of these diseases are generated by radars of the centimeter range P-35, P-37 and practically all radars of aircraft.

Looks like a fake. There is terahertz radiation where such effects are possible. But it is strongly absorbed in water vapor at such long distances. Maybe such things at high altitudes are possible or, if you look at planes at an altitude from space? There are fewer vapors.

Terahertz radiation is non-ionizing, unlike
X-ray radiation used in medical diagnostics. At that
At the same time, different biological tissues have significantly different
absorption in this range, which allows for contrast
snapshots. However, extremely high water absorption does not allow
terahertz radiation penetrate deep into the tissue, which limits
its area of ​​application is the surface of the tissue.
- Compared to visible and infrared radiation, terahertz radiation is
long-wave, which means that it is less prone to scattering. AT
as a result, many dry dielectric
materials such as fabrics, wood, paper, plastics. therefore
terahertz radiation can be used for non-destructive testing
materials, scanning at airports, etc.

Of all of any type of radiation known at the moment, only neutrinos pass through the "meter-long lead walls", but it is impossible to obtain any "image" with its help, absolutely, in principle. This is some kind of kapets, or this "adviser" dropped out of school in the fifth grade, or the RIA Novosti journalist did not take any interviews, and if he did, he deliberately ascribes his personal nonsense and compromises the official.

Photonics can also be effectively used in housing and communal services, for example, in urban and village heating systems, where photons will act as energy carriers instead of hot water.

Everything seems to be much simpler. Here is the zinc http://naukainform.kpi.ua/CriMiCo/Crimico/2000/9.pdf
In a nutshell - optoelectronic devices are used to synthesize aperture. That allows you to sharply reduce weight and size requirements.
On the network walked the photo of the filling of the AFAR Zhuk-AE. The technology of the early 90s, made on the Altera (now, perhaps on domestic). The dimensions and masses of the antenna modules impose a limit on the total number of elements in the array, heat dissipation and MTBF. The declared time of trouble-free operation ~ 900 hours.
By the way, the Americans in their latest radars have developed a technology for processing signals from side lobes. Those progress goes along the path of signal processing.

[gregor6549]

First, let's go to https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phased_antenna_array and see that the radio-optical methods of signal formation in carbonated antenna arrays, as well as the processing of the reflected signals received by them, are based on the use of RADIO OPTICAL methods and these methods have been used for a long time by all who such gratings are designed and manufactured. But at the same time, no one anywhere carries pseudoscientific nonsense about the alleged "X-ray" vision of the radars testing the PAR. Yes, in certain radar systems that use millimeter waves, it is possible to classify targets by their size and even see their geometry under certain conditions. But millimeter radars are used mainly for detecting targets at small and ultra-short distances (for example, in automobile radars or in radars that are equipped with helicopters), and such radars are not talking about hundreds of kilometers.
Therefore, I consider such statements as pure PR calculated for an illiterate public and the fact that additional funding will be issued for these statements.
