Subject: ANZAC ASMD and CEAFAR
VGNTMH    11/1/2008 6:10:40 AM
This might finally be progressing! From the Janes update emails: CEAFAR radar set for new at-sea ANZAC demonstration Australian radar and systems house CEA Technologies has begun testing of production-standard CEAFAR active phased-array radar hardware atop its engineering facility at Fyshwick, Australian Capital Territory, in advance of a further at-sea technology demonstration. CEAFAR is a central component of the enhanced Anti-Ship Missile Defence (ASMD) capability being acquired for the Royal Australian Navy's (RAN's) ANZAC-class frigates under Project SEA 1448 Phase 2B [first posted to http://idr.janes.com - 24 October 2008]

"[...]That?s a very sharp improvement over Australia?s existing frigate capabilities; indeed, it is in the same range or better than some top-of-the-line air defense destroyers."
 
You heard it folks, makes me all warm and fuzzy for our R&D industries... I also noted that the DSTO is has ongoing research in Antenna Integration into Skin technology, perhaps that could be of some use to lower the Radar return of the top mounted Antennas?

I know it would fit on the ANZAC replacements but I wonder if it would fit on a 2000t OCV.... not all 20 mind you but even on only 5 to 8 of them the possibilities excite.

As of this mornings news in the Age it seems that those 20 OPVs in 2019 are seeming less and less likely. I think CEA has already built a minor war vessel radar in conjunction with Northrop Grumman.
