| Combat use |
|
The 702D Meteorological Radar automatically tracks the balloon-carried radio sondes and processes the raw data to output the required form of artillery meteorological message. The Radar is deployed at battalion level where the meteorological data, such as wind speed, wind direction, atmospheric temperature, humidity and pressure, is disseminated to all the battery command vehicles for use in ballistic calculations. This data makes a substantial contribution to the first-round accuracy.

| Mobility |
|
The shelter of the 702D Meteorological Radar can be mounted on a 4X4 North-Benz 2629 truck chassis. The truck is powered by a German Deutz 1013/1015 liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engine rated at 220~480hp. The unique transmission and fuel designs guarantee the vehicle to function normally in temperature between -40°C and 50°C. The truck can run at a maximum speed of 85 km/h with a maximum cruising range of 800 km.
