New AORL-1AS Radar Delivered to Naryan-Mar Airport

New system ensures reliable communication in any weather and geographic conditions

Rostec has delivered ahead of schedule a new-generation radar system to Naryan-Mar Airport to support communication between aircraft and ground services. The AORL-1AS can track aircraft at distances of up to 400 kilometers and maintains stable operation even in challenging climatic and geographic conditions. The announcement was made by the state corporation’s press service.

For Airports of Any Traffic Level

The upgraded radar was supplied by the Chelyabinsk Radio Plant Polet. The system will provide communication between air traffic controllers and aircraft crews. The AORL-1AS is designed for use in airports with any level of traffic intensity. It incorporates modern electronic components and advanced signal-processing algorithms, which remain effective even in complex geographic conditions. The radar can also automatically adapt to both weather and terrain.

“Upgrading Russia’s airfield and navigation infrastructure remains a key task that the Polet Radio Plant, as part of Azimut within Rostec, is helping to address. We are reaching the required production pace, supplying customers with high-quality equipment, and focusing on long-term development. Today, our surveillance radars are installed at more than 30 civil aviation airfields. The specifications of the AORL-1AS installed ahead of schedule in Naryan-Mar allow it to detect, communicate with, and track aircraft at greater distances than comparable systems,” said acting CEO of Polet, Dmitry Breygin.

End-to-End Communication Solutions

Azimut offers a full range of domestically developed aeronautical navigation equipment. This includes radio beacons, integrated flight control systems, voice communication systems, and instrument landing systems. These solutions have already proven effective at airports in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Sochi, as well as internationally in Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, and Abkhazia.

Azimut is a leading Russian developer and manufacturer of aeronautical systems and complexes for equipping airfields and air routes. The company supplies turnkey solutions for civil aviation enterprises, including communication, navigation, landing, surveillance, and air traffic management automation systems.

Earlier, a new automated bird-control system ORNI was successfully tested at Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg.
