Abstract
This paper summarizes DTI's work in developing components for several different radar transmitter upgrades. The systems discussed include the AN/SPS-49 long range air surveillance radar, the Cobra Judy X-band systems, and the AN/SPQ-9A radar. The new technology is a viable and cost-effective replacement for obsolete components. Further, it improves the reliability of the transmitter and delivers better protection to the RF amplifier (klystron, TWT, etc.).
