Seaspray (radar)

Seaspray is series of a British airborne maritime radar systems, initially developed by Ferranti for the Lynx helicopter, built in Edinburgh. It is used primarily as an air-to-surface-vessel (ASV) radar in the anti-submarine and anti-missile-boat roles. The combination of Lynx and Seaspray has been an export success and operates in numerous armed forces around the world, often along with the related Sea Skua short-range missile.

A new series, Seaspray 7000, was launched in 2002. This is an all-new design sharing only the name with the original design.
