Description
1 November 2000 - 30 September 2004
Key developments in UK radar technology.
In this project detailed accounts of key developments in UK radar technology were analysed to address two key issues: (1) What are the processes involved in matching technological possibilities with strategic requirements, and how can the defence technology base be managed to support procurement? (2) To what extent can the defence technology base also be exploited for dual-use potential, including spin-off to civil applications?
