The FBX-T is a high-resolution, X-band, phased array radar based upon the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense Radar (THAAD) hardware and software design. This commonality allowed for the accelerated procurement and development of a forward based capability. FBX-T will include modified software algorithms for tracking and discrimination from a forward-based perspective. The radar will have a direct interface with the BMDS command and control system. The radar will perform surveillance autonomously or as cued by other sensors, and it will acquire, track and discriminate threat missiles and missile components, and pass this information to other BMDS tracking, discrimination, and fire control radars downstream.
