South Korea's Hanwha Systems has signed an agreement with Leonardo to collaborate on the development and export of active electronically scanned array (AESA) radars for light combat aircraft (LCA).

The agreement, signed at the Paris Air Show 2023, is expected to lead to the development of an “export model” of the AESA radar, Hanwha Systems said in a media release on 21 June.

The agreement is expected to facilitate Hanwha Systems' entry into the global AESA radar market as well as strengthen Leonardo's position in the global LCA market, Hanwha Systems added.

An AESA radar can enable faster beam-steering by electronically controlling multiple small transmit/receive (T/R) modules integrated on its front, Hanwha Systems said. It also supports wide-area surveillance and simultaneous detection of multiple targets, enhancing situational awareness of defence forces, the company added.

Hanwha Systems had not responded to Janes request for more information at the time of publication.
