Bringing maximum survivability in today's operating theatres;
ALR-400 has been designed to ensuremaximum survivability in today's complexhigh density environment by means ofimproved situation awareness in thepresence of an increasing number andsophistication of radar systems. ALR-400performs with complex waveforms such asfrequency agile pulse-Doppler radars,in high pulse densities and detecting faintdistant signals in the presence of strongnearby transmitters. Indra's radar warningreceiver is suited for all missions, for bothlow altitude - short range and high altitude- long range engagements
Incorporating the latest wide-band digital technology;
ALR-400 incorporates proven leading edgewide band digital reception. High speeddigitization techniques and sophisticatedparallel process algorithms addressing bothreal time and frequency domainsallow for precise minimal false alarm pulse to pulse parameter measurements.The high processing throughput ensuresperformances in high pulse densities aswell as keeping a low latency for rapidresponse and thus effectively supportingcountermeasures. This technology results in a simpler architecture, providingoutstanding performances and maximisingthe probability of intercept while givingaway the need for any collaborative narrowband receivers or dedicated devices
Built on a proven, high reliability and flexible COTS based open architecture;
Through a reduced parts count andan intensive use of COTS, includingprogrammable processors, combined witha rapid COTS insertion approach, ALR-400has an improved reliability, low life cyclecosts and enhanced supportability. An openarchitecture provides for modular isolatedstandard interfaces, such as MIL-STD-1553B, communications serial port, USB,ARINC-429 and 100BaseT fast ethernet.The radar warner processor can host thedefence aid computer (DAC) functionenabling control and integration,by means of its multiple Interfaces, ofinfrared, electronic attack and decoycountermeasures as well as missile andlaser warning.

Equipment sovereignty supported by ground testing and threat library management system;
ALR-400 can be supported with Indraground support test, post flight analysis,and threat library management systems.Indra's electronic warfare ground supportsystems provide end testing, complete reprogramming of separately loadable userdata files, library generation andevaluation, as well as detailed post-missionanalysis tools for recorded data down tointra-pulse level. Indra can thus provide full equipment sovereignty, allowing end usersto operate, maintain and upgrade ALR-400independently
