Germany has selected Raytheon’s SPY-6(V)1 radar for its eight upcoming F127-class air defense frigates.
The foreign military sales request includes support and services to integrate and adapt the radar to the frigate’s design.
If approved, the deal will make Germany the first non-US customer for the SPY-6 system.
“Germany’s selection of SPY-6 reaffirms the global confidence in the radar’s advanced capabilities and its critical role in enhancing naval defense,” president of Naval Power at Raytheon Barbara Borgonovi said.
“Integrating the radar on F127 frigates will provide the German Navy with a multi-mission solution that enables faster and more informed decision-making at sea.”
