NOVA Integrated Systems Surface Surveillance Radar for Indian Navy

On 22 February 2017, the Indian MoD signed a contract with NOVA Integrated Systems Limited (NISL), a subsidiary of Tata Advanced Systems Limited ( TASL) to execute the Indian Navy’s Surface Surveillance Radar (SSR) project. The SSR programme is the first procurement by MoD under the ‘Buy and Make (Indian)’ category of the Defence Procurement Procedure (DPP). The project involves delivery, installation and commissioning of the radar systems on Indian Navy vessels, as well as delivery of simulators, establishing depot level facilities, and integrated logistics support with deliveries spread over 10 years. The proposed radar is based on the latest solid-state technology and also suited for coastal surveillance applications.
