Q10. What type of radar system provides early warning of approaching enemy aircraft or missiles? Q11. What   phase   of   guidance   is   NOT   necessary   for some  missiles Q12. What   are   the   three   types   of   homing   guidance used  for  missiles? Q13. What  are  the  three  sequenti8al  phases  of  radar operation? Q14. In what phase of the fire control problem sequence    does    fore    control    radar    first    play    a part? RADAR  SYSTEMS  IN  TODAY’S  NAVY There  are  too  many   radar  systems  used  in  today’s Navy   to   cover   in   this   volume. However,   table   1-2 provides  an  overview  of  the  radars  and  sensors  in  use, by  AN  system  designator,  ship  class,  and  related  FC systems. SUMMARY Radio,   detecting,   and   ranging   (radar)   uses   radio frequency   (RF)   energy   and  a   complex   integration   of computers, displays, and support equipment to detect a target.  However,  radar  is  just  one  type  of  sensor  that  is available  to  the  modern  Fire  Controlman.  Other  types of   sensors   (e.g.,   infrared   and   optical)   use   different 1-21 Designator Type Ship  Class Range Weapon/Function Related  FC System SEARCH SPS  48  C/E/F 3D  Air  Search, phased  array CV/CVN, LHA,  LCC,  LHD 220  NM Primary  Search SYS-1,SYS-2 SPS  52  C 3D  Air  Search LHD 240  NM Primary  Search SYS-1 FIRE  CONTROL Mk  92  CAS (Combined Antenna  Systems) Fire  Control, Track-While-Scan, Search FFG 25  NM Mk  75  Gun,  SM-1 missiles Part  of  Mk  92  FCS Mk  95  radar Fire  Control,  CW tracker,  illuminator DD  (Spruance), CV/CVN 20  NM SEASPARROW missiles Mk  23  TAS, Part  of  Mk  91  FCS SPG  51  D Fire  Control, pulse-doppler, COSRO  tracker, CWI DDG  (Kidd) 100  NM SM-1(MR)  missiles, SM-2  missiles Part  of  Mk  74  FCS SPG  60 Fire  Control DD  (Spruance), DDG  (Kidd) 50  NM SM-1/2  missiles, Mk  45  LWG SPY-1,  Mk  86  GFCS SPG  62 Fire  Control,  CW, illuminator DDG  (Arleigh Burke), CG  (Ticonderoga) 20  NM SM-2  missiles SPY-1, Part  of  Mk  99  FCS SPQ  9  Series Fire  Control, Track-While-Scan, (Surface), pulse-doppler DD  (Spruance), DDG  (Kidd), CG  (Ticonderoga), LHA 20  NM SM-1/2  missiles Mk  45  LWG SPY-1 Mk  86  GFCS STIR  (Separate Target Illuminating Radar) Fire  Control, monopulse  tracker- illuminator FFG 60  NM Mk  75  Gun, SM-1  missiles Part  of  Mk  92  FCS Table  1-2.—Radar    Systems  in  the  U.  S.  Navy
