Description
The Credo-1E unified moving ground target locating radar is designed to detect moving ground, surface and low-flying targets (man, group of people, vehicles) and to support artillery fire round-the-clock, in any season, and under zero visibility conditions (fog, smoke, and dust). It can be used as a standalone surveillance asset (with its transceiver and antenna control unit mounted on a tripod) or as part of a variety of artillery reconnaissance and mobile observation posts (on telescopic masts). The radar has standard interfaces allowing real-time transmission of target coordinates to the user, as well as remote radar control via communication links.
