Raytheon’s AN/SPY-6(V) is and integrated air and missile defense naval radar that can track multiple ballistic and cruise missile targets.

Navies around the world are increasingly facing formidable strategic and threat environments in terms of complexity, lethality, range, sophistication and number of threats. Many of these threats, including long-range anti-ship cruise missiles, can travel hundreds of miles to their targets,  toward surface ships challenged to detect the approaching weapon with line-of-sight radar systems. To counter these threats, the militaries around the world are developing networked integrated Air and Missile defense systems (IAMD). IAMD entails both the defence against conventional air threats, such as aircraft, helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles and balloons (air defence), as well as the defence against ballistic missiles and cruise missiles (missile defense).
