Main Features of the Navalized Display
|
|
|
Target Intercept
Target Intercept enables the radar operator to plan and implement an interception of a tracked target. This is particularly useful in maritime interdiction operations (MIOPs).
Freeze Frame
This feature is used whenever it is necessary to impose radar silence. Once the operator activates this function, the radar display shows a still image of the radar situation immediately before radar silence was ordered. The operator can activate this function locally or it can be imposed remotely.

Red First Strike
Red First Strike shows fast moving targets such as aircraft and fast attack craft by highlighting them in red. This feature improves the operator's reaction time by simplifying potential threat identification.

Helicopter Approach
This feature provides the ability to set up an approach sector on the screen, which is especially valuable in conditions of poor visibility. The radar operator is able to check the status of the helicopter's approach and offer guidance to the pilot. And, the approach sector may be set up on ownship or on any tracked target. |

Station Keeping
In inclement weather or at night it is often difficult to maintain station on surrounding vessels. The Station Keeping feature allows the operator to define a sector for every nearby vessel so he can immediately see if any vessel has moved from its correct location.

|
Range Yards
The navalized display offers the operator a choice of the standard radar distance units of nautical miles, kilometers or statute miles or of yards. The units selected will be set during commissioning.
|
|
Advanced Index Lines
Index lines are often used for blind piloting operations. Sperry Marine's navalized display allows up to 15 index lines to be displayed simultaneously in groups of five. The operator can clip the lines to the exact length required in order to reduce clutter. In addition, these lines may be prepared in advance and stored on a memory card for future use.
