The patent describes a high resolution aircraft radar antenna having a pair of long alternately activated radio frequency (RF) antenna arrays in back-to-back relation within an elliptical cross-sectional boom of good aerodynamic characteristics supported on a retractable mounting from an aircraft and capable of producing slow boom rotation beneath the aircraft in the extended condition. It is streamlined with the fuselage in the retracted position for low drag to provide 360 degree radar search scanning and tracking operation.
