At
Paris Air Show 2011, Thales presents a scale model of the
SHIKRA-60 short range radar mounted
on BMP chassis russian made tracked armoured vehicle. The
SHIKRA RIS (Radar Identification Station) ,significantly
improves target detection. It is a protection against the
most aggressive air threats. It stands apart from rival
products due to its multiple search and track capabilities
and its technical performances.

The SHIKRA
RIS is designed to detect all types of threats (combat
aircraft, helicopters, UAV). The radar counters the most
advanced, high-manoeuvring low observable stealth threats.
It can also track 200 targets simultaneously in hostile
environment characterised by ground, rain and artificial
clutter.
Also an E/F-band system, the shorter range Shikra 60 has
an 80-km range, a 15,000-metre ceiling and a similar tracking
capacity but is housed in a 15-foot container. This is
the surveillance radar that is also mounted on the Ades
(Air Defence Extended Solution), which is the compact
all-in-one multi-missile option proposed by Thales to
counter threats posed by aircraft, helicopters, cruise
missiles, artillery, rockets, mortars, saturating drones
and 'late unmasking' targets.
