Advanced S-Band and C-Band Weather Radar Antenna Systems

High-precision, ISO-certified weather radar antennas engineered for accurate, reliable atmospheric monitoring.

Accurate Meteorological Tracking Requires High-Performance, Durable Antenna Technology

Modern meteorological operations depend on radar systems that can capture precise atmospheric data in real-time, withstand harsh weather and operate with long-term reliability. The Kratos family of S-band and C-band weather radar antenna and pedestal systems is designed to meet these demands. Built to ISO 9001 specifications, these systems include multiple antenna diameters and pedestal configurations to support diverse deployment requirements.

Trusted by leading weather organizations — including as part of the NEXRAD program — these systems deliver exceptional gain performance, smooth elevation positioning, continuous azimuth rotation and advanced servo control electronics for accurate environmental monitoring.

Reliable, High-Gain Antennas Designed for Precision & Longevity

Engineering for high-accuracy atmospheric detection, Kratos weather antennas combine robust mechanical design with advanced servo control for dependable long-term performance.

Key benefits include:

Lightweight aluminum reflector for improved structural performance.	High antenna grain for enhanced weather detection.
Single or optional dual-polarization capability.	Replaceable main bearing without disturbing the antenna.
Main sump, slip ring brush block assemblies and double-lip gearbox shaft seals for extended service life.	State-of-the-art brushless servo control electronics.
Precision COTS elevation actuator and compound planetary azimuth drive for smooth, continuous rotation.	Qualified for use in NEXRAD program.
