As part of Project Marshall, radar operators at Royal Air Force (RAF) Waddington have relocated to a new specialist hub at RAF Coningsby, the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) announced on 12 May.
This is the first of a series of transitions that will involve approach control room radar operatives, from multiple units, moving to a centralised Terminal Air Traffic Control Centre (TATCC), the announcement said.
An MoD spokesperson told Janes that the equipment at RAF Coningsby hub consists of new primary and secondary surveillance systems and new communication equipment, all integrated into a refurbished Air Traffic Management tower. The new primary surveillance system is a Thales STAR NG (uncooperative radar) and Thales Wide Area Multilateration (co-operative sensor) displayed via the Thales TopSky software system.
First unveiled in 2015, STAR NG is a primary radar that can provide reliable surveillance over wind farms; detection of small objects such as remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS); and frequency flexibility for customers wishing to redeploy spectrum, or exercise frequency agility for defence purposes.
