Scanter 6000 is a solid-state surveillance radar operating in the X-Band for situational awareness of surface and low airspace. The radar can detect small targets, provide helicopter guidance, and detect large and small targets at close and maximum ranges simultaneously.
The Royal Malaysian Navy has chosen the Scanter 6000 as a combined navigation and helicopter control radar for the mid-life modernization and service life extension of their two Lekiu-class frigates.
