First batch of Patriot radars with Polish antennas is ready

US arms company Raytheon has completed the integration of IFF system antennas, which are produced by Poland’s PIT-Radwar, with the Patriot system radar. The IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) antenna allows the Patriot system to determine whether a particular aircraft belongs to an ally or an enemy. The IFF system antennas from PIT-Radwar are to be employed in radars used by Poland and other new users of the Patriot system.
