![HENSOLDT Secures $10M Contract for TRS-3D Baseline D Radars from the US Coast Guard](https://cdn.everythingrf.com/website/global/gray-svg-image.svg)
Sensor solutions provider HENSOLDT has started to equip the US Coast Guard’s “Legend” class National Security Cutter (NSC) with its proven TRS-3D multi-mode naval radar. The US Coast Guard awarded HENSOLDT a follow-on contract worth approximately 10 Mio. $ to deliver a further radar in its latest ‘Baseline D’ version to be installed at the Coast Guard training center (TRACEN), Petaluma/CA. Up to now, HENSOLDT has delivered 12 radars to the US Coast Guard’s NSC program.
“With more than 50 radars in service with Coast Guards and Navies worldwide, our TRS-3D naval radar has proven itself”, HENSOLDT CEO Thomas Müller says. “We are making sure that our customers capitalize on continuous technology enhancements.”
Functioning within the C band spectrum, the TRS-3D is a multi-mode phased array radar. Its specialty lies in its capability for automatic detection, track initiation, and classification of diverse targets, particularly in the cluttered environments of littoral zones. It possesses a keen ability to monitor small, rapidly moving, and low-altitude aircraft, missiles, and hovering helicopters, among other asymmetric threats.
The TRS-3D facilitates both 3D air volume surveillance with quick target alerts and surface surveillance of high resolution. Its intrinsic design aids in providing target designation to Combat Management Systems for both Anti-Air Warfare and Anti-Surface Warfare. Additionally, it offers support in surface gunfire, helicopter approaches, and controls while also boasting advanced Electronic Counter-Countermeasures functions.
The TRS-3D Baseline D, with the US designation AN/SPS-75, utilizes gallium nitride (GaN) and solid-state emitter technology to deliver traditional TRS-3D robust performance while improving reliability and options for future development. HENSOLDT’s TRS-3D radars have been aboard every NSC since the program’s inception. TRS-3D is a three-dimensional, multi-mode naval radar for air and surface surveillance, target acquisition, self-defense, gunfire support and aircraft control. It automatically detects and tracks all types of air and sea targets, alleviating crew workload requirements.
HENSOLDT has decades of experience in radar and actively drives the further development of key technologies in this field. In addition to naval and ground-based air defense radars, the company's portfolio also includes fighter radars as well as ground surveillance and space radars.
