91N6 - Radartutorial

The 91N6 is an S-band surveillance and tracking radar developed for Russia's S-400 surface-to-air missile system. It is an upgraded version of the 64N6 radar with higher transmitter power and can detect up to 300 targets. The radar uses a reflection-type phased array antenna mounted on two containers and offers different operating modes for adaptation to combat conditions. Known variants include the 91N6 intended for the S-300 and S-400 systems, the 91N6A modernized for the S-400M, and the 91N6E export variant without Russian IFF capabilities.

91N6
91N6 (NATO-designator “Big Bird”) is operating in the S band surveillance and tracking
radar developed for the SA-21 “Growler” surface-to-air missile system (Russian designator:
S-400 “Triumf”). Basically, the 91N6E is an upgraded variant of the 64N6E radar (NATO-
designator “Tombstone”) with the same antenna design but higher transmitter power. Its
digital signal processing can detect up to 300 targets.
The radar is placed in two containers, one fixed with the radar electronic and the
indicators, the second with the transmitters, receivers and the antennas. The main antenna
is a reflection type of space feeded phased-array antenna using 2 700 phase shifters. Two
main antennas are mounted back-to-back with beam scanning in two planes. The radar
offers different operating modes for maximum adaptation to combat conditions, e.g.
continuous antenna rotation, sector view, stopped antenna drive and additional antenna

tilt. The 64N6E incorporates additional auxiliary antenna/receiver channels for
suppression of sidelobe jammers. An IFF-System is incorporated.
