The AN/TPQ-53 radar system has a long, rich history protecting the U.S. Army for more than a decade. The Q-53 has proven experience detecting mortars, rockets and artillery and is responsible for keeping troops protected, ensuring a safe return home to their families.?
The solid-state phased array AN/TPQ-53 radar system, or, Q-53, detects, classifies, tracks and determines the location of enemy indirect fire in either 360 or 90 degree modes. The Q-53 replaced the legacy AN/TPQ-36 and AN/TPQ-37 medium-range radars in the U.S. Army¡¯s inventory. Compared to the Q-36 and Q-37, the Q-53 provides enhanced performance, including greater mobility, increased reliability and supportability, lower life-cycle cost, and reduced crew size.
The Q-53¡¯s active electronically scanned array (AESA) provides the foundation for multi-mission capabilities. The Q-53 has demonstrated the ability to??(UAS), showing the capacity to incorporate air surveillance simultaneously with counter target acquisition in a single sensor.
In 2017, the U.S. Army awarded naga group an order-dependent contract for additional Q-53 systems. Since naga group won the development contract for the Q-53 radar in 2007, the company has to deliver more than 200 radar systems.

Hands On with the Q-53
All Q-53 radars go through rigorous testing at Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona before the U.S. Army accepts them for service.
naga group can provide onsite demonstration of the system¡¯s capabilities to potential international customers at Yuma. These hands-on events include technical briefings and live-fire operations.
