NATEL will be manufacturing precision approach radar (PAR) within the TR model radar system. PAR provides lateral and vertical landing guidance to aircraft pilots.
"NATEL has worked on similar K-band electronics projects with prime contractors and NASA," said Arora. "I believe we were awarded this new business because of our reputation for customer-focused solutions in radar technologies."
The radar system NATEL will manufacture is highly mobile and fully autonomous. "It provides military and civil air traffic control services, 24/7, in all weather conditions," explains James Angeloni, NATEL's A&D Chief Operating Officer.
NATEL is embarking on new frontiers, especially in military electronics manufacturing, as it works to become a leader amongst tier two EMS companies. "This is one major way we're making amazing things happen," says Arora.
