3 Radar at Cambridge Consultants We are a leader in short range radar systems development and a supplier of specialist systems Over thirty years experience in developing radar sensors Missile test and evaluation systems ARMS vector scoring system 3D imaging radar systems automotive, through-wall, infill Holographic radar real-time performance in heavy clutter for infill and scoring Arctic exploration Military T&E Automotive PRISM 200 through-wall radar Road & Marine Holographic radar October 2011 S4923-P-073 v0.3

4 Short introduction to Cambridge Consultants LSTS development program Trials results from March 2011 Program going forwards Questions 4 10 October 2011 S4923-P-073 v0.3

5 LSTS Land and Surface Target Scorer (LSTS) The Land and Surface Target Scorer is a real-time vector scoring system for highly mobile targets operating in very cluttered environments. The LSTS proof of concept development was funded by the OSD Target Management Initiative program, sponsored and managed by NAWC-WD, Point Mugu, Target Systems Division, HSMST burst trajectory fall of shot 1000ft scoring volume 5 10 October 2011 S4923-P-073 v0.3

6 LSTS Performance requirements Key functionality of the LSTS system Parameter Final system PoC system Coverage Hemispherical Quadrant Range (5 shell) 1000 feet 330 feet Range (.50 calibre) 300 feet 100 feet Firing rate 20 rounds per minute 40 seconds continuous capture Projectile closing velocity Simultaneous operation 2500ft/sec up to 4 targets with not less than 1000 ft separation 2500ft/sec Reporting Real-time 15 minutes 1 radar operating required 6 10 October 2011 S4923-P-073 v0.3

7 LSTS origins Land and Surface Target Scorer (LSTS) We had already developed a small, single card holographic radar system that tracks multiple targets in real time, for the automotive market. We had tested a variant of this system in longer range and in marine applications. SPOT radar 6 x October 2011 S4923-P-073 v0.3

8 LSTS development Land and Surface Target Scorer (LSTS) Proof of Concept system The system was developed from start to TRL6 in 15 months. The proof-of-concept equipment has been engineered to a form that is close to that of the final system.
