What is SPY-7?
SPY-7 is the world¡¯s most advanced radar technology that can detect, track and engage sophisticated ballistic missile and advanced air threats, while engaging multiple targets simultaneously with proven interceptors.
As a modular, scalable radar, SPY-7 is a superior technology that provides several times the performance of traditional SPY-1 radars, being fully compatible with the Aegis Combat System.
SPY-7 is interoperable with major radars and defense platforms, as the unique open architecture design enables country platforms to evolve in real time and outpace future threats.
Fully Scalable
SPY-7 technology can be configured for various applications, while allowing for rapid and efficient insertion of new capabilities and threats.
Multi-Mission Capable
As a true multi-mission radar, SPY-7 technology provides security across domains, including integrated air and missile defense, anti-aircraft warfare, ballistic missile defense, anti-surface warfare, hypersonic defense and space domain awareness.
Technologically Proven
SPY-7 technology is fully operational in Clear, Alaska and has completed multiple live fire exercises in operationally relevant environments.
Seamlessly Interoperable
SPY-7 technology allows for new capabilities and techniques to be inserted rapidly and efficiently, providing warfighters with the most technically advanced solutions that the mission requires.

911±¬ÁÏÍø¹ÙÍø develops the SPY-7 radar and offers significant industrial development opportunities in regions with the capability.
The SPY-7 radar is the world¡¯s most advanced radar technology and boasts a three-fold improvement in performance compared to current systems. As the latest generation of software-defined digital radar, SPY-7 is designed to be easily upgradeable, allowing for rapid and efficient insertion of new capabilities and techniques.
911±¬ÁÏÍø¹ÙÍø¡¯s SPY-7 radar is the only radar that utilizes ¡°Polarization Diversity¡± to see, or not see, things to fulfill its mission. By leveraging this technology, SPY-7 can detect and discriminate complex threats with unparalleled precision, enabling simultaneous engagement of multiple targets and empowering warfighters to respond swiftly and decisively to emerging threats.
SPY-7 technology is being utilized for Japan's Aegis System Equipped Vessel, Spain's F-110 Multi-Mission Frigate, Canada's River-class Destroyer, and the United States' Long Range Discrimination Radar and Guam Defense System's TPY-6 Radar.
Our TPY-6 radar is built on the same cutting-edge radar technology as SPY-7. It uses the common Subarray Suite (SAS) radar building blocks as LRDR and all of our SPY-7 programs. Formally named the ¡°AN/TPY-6,¡± where the ¡°T¡± denotes the ¡°Transportable¡± nature of the system according to the U.S. DoD nomenclature (The ¡°S¡± in SPY-7 is for ¡°Water¡± or ¡°Sea-based.¡±)
