RAN-30X
The RAN-30X alias MM/SPS-791 (MM stands for Marina Militare, a nomenclature for the Italian Navy, similar to the US-Army/Navy's nomenclature AN/…) is a 2D shipborne multimode surveillance radar operating in X-Band. It can operate as a primary sensor for combined surface and air surveillance on board patrol vessels or as a specialized anti-seaskimmer sensor on board major Surface Combatant Vessels.
The antenna is mounted on a mechanical Roll and Pitch stabilised platform. The primary radar antenna is a parabolic reflector with two different beams: beam one forms a Cosecant Squared pattern, beam two (providing a higher gain) forms a Pencil-Beam applied for anti-missile detection and Over-the-Horizon mode. The antenna is designed to house the IFF antenna in a back-to-back configuration.
| Mode | purpose | instrumented range | rotation speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | air/surface surveillance | 100 km | 15 rpm |
| 2 | navigation and heli control | 40 km | 30 rpm |
| 3 | over-the-horizon surface | 200 km | 3 rpm |
| 4 | anti-missile | 25 km | 30 rpm |
