Ground
Radomes

Spacefaring supplied 30 radomes, plus 10 spares, for BEL's LLLWR — also known as the Aslesha Mk1 Radar — to the Indian Air Force, following a full year of rigorous field trials in extreme high-altitude operational areas and extreme weather conditions, with high wind and heavy snow loading.

Spacefaring has developed and supplied more than 40 radomes for a variety of ground radars currently operational across India, constructed using a lightweight, custom-made GFRP structure and a proprietary low-RF-loss, high-performance fabric.

Spacefaring supplied deployable radomes to the Indian Air Force for ELTA's Low Level Light Weight Radar, following successful field trials in some of India's most challenging operational areas — extreme cold below -40°C and altitudes up to 20,000 ft.

The radome is designed to deliver outstanding electromagnetic performance for its specific frequency bands.

Spacefaring supplied a radome for the K-band Man-Portable Satcom system, used for tactical communications and data systems by the Indian Armed Forces.

The radome has been inducted into service after rigorous field trials demonstrating outstanding electromagnetic performance at high frequencies.

Spacefaring has started a new line of revolutionary radome technologies. Our pressurized and lowly-pressurized radome technology offers unsurpassed simplicity, robustness, and predictability — attributes unprecedented in inflatable architecture — capable of withstanding immense snow loads, and is 100% scalable.

Built to suit the unique operating conditions of the Indian Armed Forces, the radome is designed to operate India's Low Level Transportable Radar — derived from the Thales GS-100 Radar — as well as the Ashwini and Rohini radars, at altitudes up to 20,000 ft. There is currently no commercially available radome with the performance characteristics LLTR demands in India's extreme high-altitude areas. Spacefaring is working directly with the Indian Air Force on its design and development.
