Terrorist Attack 2 Pakistani Checkposts in South Waziristan

[Drongo]

Its called GSR ground surveillance radar... can detect a moving human at 7 km and a moving car at 15... was built as a phd project by a student of NUST has been adopted by army in 2013

It still isn't capable of differentiating between a terrorist and a civilian, so unless it is set up in an uninhabited area that isn't used by villagers it probably won't achieve much. Hilly terrain also makes it much less sensitive.

Which mujahideen group is this and for what they are fighting?

The protfolio is not to start shooting as soon as movement is detected, its a multiple tier system, once it is detected that inward movement is commencing from a lone target or a group, the border survielance mechanism initiates, information is delivered to the concerned department which may than deploy survielance drones to figure out if it is a civilian or terrorist group, drones can figure out the threat level and according to that assets may be dispatched to intercept it, if it is a low level threat and possibility of civilains 2 patrol jeeps maybe deployed to intercept and if the threat indicates towards a larger group and high probility of terrorist movement than spec forces or a chopper cannbe deployed, if it is 100% deciphered that the movement is a terrorist group than no interception would be needed n armed drones can be deployed directly to take care of the target...

sir have you got more information about this radar and if the army is producing them in large numbers ?

Nope... it was first seen in some videos released during zarb e azb...placed on the posts... there is some info on relevant thread in this forum

GSR ,Ground surveillance radar is a class of radar sensors that monitor activity surrounding or on critical infrastructure areas such as airports,[1] seaports, military installations, national borders, refineries and other critical industry and the like. Such radars are characterized by their ability to detect movement at ground level of targets such as an individual walking or crawling towards a facility. Such radars typically have ranges of several hundred metres to over 10 kilometers.

Pakistan's Ministry of defense production launched a Research and development project for completely indigenous production of a GSR in collaboration with EME and other departments of NUST.
A total of 39 Million Rs were allocated for R&D. The preliminary/Theoretical work was completed within an year with 20+ PHD students working on the project. The project was so successful that AESA and PESA technologies seemed conceivable within Pakistan's own expertise and resources.
International Microwave journal IEEE received and published dozens of research papers about Radar technology from the students working on this project. See project 274 on NUST website
NESCOM was given the task of further developing the AESA , PESA related research which branched out of this project. 300 Million USD were allocated for Pakistan's own dedicated Electronics R&D labs near Islamabad which had to be a subsidiary of NESCOM.
Unfortunately the labs never materialized in its desired form. Much of the funds dedicated for the lab were diverted to other civilian projects by PPP Prime minister Raja Pervez Ashraf.
A toned down NESCOM Electronics complex was completed in 2012,but was again a victim of financial corruption and could not do any mlre than manufacturing Motherboards for NRTC's Software defined radios.

The research on further development and building of a prototype GSR continued at NUST/EME
The project was started in 2006 and named "national Radar" or NR.

Over the years 3 versions were built and tested and in 2014 the Final prototype NR-V3 was accepted for production by Pakistan's Ministry of Defense production.

The Radar's Exact specifications are still undisclosed,but a learned guess is that the Radar has the capability of detecting Humans at 4Km range and Vehicles at 12Km range with an average accuracy of 96%.
The biggest challenge in any Ground surveillance radar is to identify target among clutter or reflections of trees,buildings and other ground objects. This was probably the biggest research project and many research papers were written by Pakistani PHD students on this subject during the project.
The final Algorithms was very robust and with accuracy of 96% or more.

All the components,including Antenna,transmitters,Receivers,Filters and software were designed,built and tested in Pakistan.
It is yet to be seen when the Radar will enter mass production and deployment on strategically important locations for area surveillance.

THANX A LOT

1 attack can be a coincidence. Daily attacks and that also from across the Afghan border prove complicity, that of the Afghan nation in the killing of ordinary Pakistani soldiers as well as civilians. I would like a solid wall-like response to the Afghans to put them in their place.
