Navalized Display - Features

Red First Strike
Red First Strike provides an immediate indication of fast moving targets such as fixed and rotary wing aircraft and fast attack craft, by highlighting them in red. This feature improves the operator's reaction time by simplifying the identification of any potential threat. |

Target Intercept
Target intercept enables the radar operator to plan and implement an interception of any tracked target either by own ship or by another tracked target such as a flotilla member. This is particularly useful in maritime interdiction/ counter drugs operations (MIOPs). |

Helicopter Approach
The ability to display a helicopter approach sector on screen is of great value in assisting with helicopter operations, especially in poor visibility. At a glance, the radar operator is able to check the status of the helicopter's approach and provide guidance to the pilot. The approach sector may be set up on own ship or on any tracked target. |
|
Freeze Frame In any naval operation there may be times when it is necessary to impose radar silence. During these times the operator can be provided with a frozen picture of the radar situation immediately before the radar silence was imposed by using the Freeze Frame function. The operator can activate this function locally or it can be imposed remotely. |
|
Situation Keeping In bad weather conditions and at night it is often difficult to maintain station on other surrounding vessels. By using the station keeping feature, the operator is able to set up a sector for each vessel nearby which will allow him to see at a glance if any vessel has moved out of its correct position. |

Advanced Index Lines
Many military organizations prefer to use index lines for blind pilotage operations. Sperry Marine's navalized display allows up to 15 index lines to be displayed simultaneously in groups of five. In order to minimize the cluttering effect of these lines, the operator is able to clip the lines to the exact length required. These lines may be prepared in advance and stored on a memory card for future use. |

Range Yards
In addition to the standard radar distance units of nautical miles, kilometers and statute miles found in the BridgeMaster E commercial radar the navalized display also offers the operator the choice of yards, which can be set during commissioning. |
