Ground/Air Task Order Radar (G/ATOR)
G/ATOR is a highly mobile system intended to fully support the Marine Corps' expeditionary warfare requirements. The new radar system will provide the Marines with enhanced capabilities to detect, track, and provide target quality data to engage hostile aircraft, cruise missiles, unmanned air vehicles, rockets, mortars, and artillery. G/ATOR will also provide robust air traffic control capabilities to enhance the safety of Marine Corps air operations.G/ATOR will enable enhanced operational capabilities using Northrop Grumman's proven Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar technology. This AESA architecture will allow G/ATOR to provide multi-mission performance and the ability to automatically adapt to dynamic battlefield conditions, at significantly lower operation and maintenance costs compared to existing radar systems. G/ATOR incorporates a scaleable open system architecture and multi-network connectivity to ensure compatibility with Navy, other U.S. Department of Defense and allied command and control systems.
