| Source measurement | — | The Kasta 2E was developed originally by the Soviet Union . Its primary objective is to overcome deficiencies or to satisfy the demand in low-level surveillance. Both radar types can be triggered with either equal or opposed phases. Both antenna types can optionally be mounted on a standard 50 meter pylon. This arrangement causes a displacement of the radar horizon which in turn increases the detection altitude up to 6 km at a distance of 150 km.[source]Kasta 2E · Development; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage |
