A shipboard high frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR), operating between 15 and 25 MHz,.can detect low-flying anti- ship missiles by virtue of diffraction beyond the horizon in a surface-attached wave. Following several successfully shore-side demonstrations, the Navy initiated a program in FY95 to demonstrate a shipboard HFSWR system. A system is currently under fabrication that will be tested in 1999 on the LSD-52 (Pearl Harbor) and on the US Navy's Self-Defense Test Ship. This paper describes the system and testing performed to date, as well as system trade studies and shipboard noise measurements.
