Division [6A108] Radar systems, tracking systems and radomes, other than those specified in entry 6A008, as follows:F1

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

  1. a..

    Radar and laser radar systems designed or modified for use in space launch vehicles specified in 9A004 or sounding rockets specified in 9A104;

    Note:

    6A108.a. includes the following:

    1. a..

      Terrain contour mapping equipment;

    2. b..

      Scene mapping and correlation (both digital and analogue) equipment;

    3. c..

      Doppler navigation radar equipment;

    4. d..

      Passive interferometer equipment;

    5. e..

      Imaging sensor equipment (both active and passive).

  2. b..

    Precision tracking systems, usable for ‘missiles’, as follows:

    1. 1..

      Tracking systems which use a code translator in conjunction with either surface or airborne references or navigation satellite systems to provide real-time measurements of in-flight position and velocity;

    2. 2..

      Range instrumentation radars including associated optical/infrared trackers with all of the following capabilities:

      1. a..

        Angular resolution better than 1,5 milliradians;

      2. b..

        Range of 30 km or greater with a range resolution better than 10 m rms; and

      3. c..

        Velocity resolution better than 3 m/s;

    Technical Note:

    In 6A108.b. ‘missile’ means complete rocket systems and unmanned aerial vehicle systems capable of a range exceeding 300 km.

  3. c..

    Radomes designed to withstand a combined thermal shock greater than 4,184 × 106 J/m2 accompained by a peak over pressure of greater than 50 kPa, and usable in "missiles" for protecting against nuclear effects (e.g. electromagnetic pulse (EMP), X-rays, combined blast and thermal effects).
