| Source measurement | Its command and control system, target acquisition and fire control are fully automated. The surveillance and fire control radars developed by Bharat Electronics Limited, namely, the Active Array Battery Surveillance Radar (BSR) and the Active Array Battery Multifunction Radar (BMFR) are four walled, configured to provide 360 degree coverage, integrated with identification friend or foe for multiple target engagement. Both the radars have Quad Transmit Receive Modules (QTRMs). The BSR operates in C-band with a range of 120 km (75 mi) while the BMFR operates in X-band with a range of 80 km (50 mi). The Anant Shastra has a maximum range of 30 km (19 mi) and can intercept targets flying at 10 km (6.2 mi) altitude. According to DRDO, currently the Anant Shastra has 90% indigenous component, which is projected to increase 99% incrementally. It has been interfaced with the Akashteer .[source]Anant Shastra · Description; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage | — |
