The Swedish Procurement Agency has selected the TPY-4, a fifth-generation ground-to-air surveillance radar from Lockheed Martinto improve the country’s long-term surveillance capability. This makes Sweden the third country to opt for the system.
“We are honored to support the defense and security of our partner nations,” said Rick Cordaro, vice president of radar and sensor systems at Lockheed Martin.
“The TPY-4 radar represents a significant advance in integrated deterrence and strengthens interoperability with NATO-allies. As a trusted partner of the U.S. Air Force, Norway and now Sweden, we are committed to providing this advanced radar technology to counter the complex and growing threats to America and its partners.”
The TPY-4 is a phased array radar with air surveillance capability, including real-time detection and tracking of airborne targets. Lockheed Martin will deliver the first TPY-4 radar systems to the Swedish Air Force in 2027.
