Observation Without Limits (O.W.L.) has launched the GA7360LR Extended Mid-Range 360-Degree Radar System, a 3D radar designed for low-altitude airspace surveillance and ground monitoring.
The US-based radar manufacturer said the GA7360LR builds on its GA7360 model introduced in 2024, with extended detection ranges and improvements to target tracking and classification. O.W.L. chief executive Adam Robinett said the system is intended to deliver 360-degree coverage without requiring multiple radar panels, reducing mounting, power and network infrastructure requirements.
According to the company, the GA7360LR provides automatic detection, tracking and target classification out to 7.5km with a 360-degree horizontal field of view and a 45-degree elevation field of view.
O.W.L. said the system is aimed at applications including drone situational awareness, counter-UAS deployments (with and without electronic and kinetic countermeasures), drone-as-first-responder programs, bird detection, and beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) and detect-and-avoid use cases. The company said intended users include critical infrastructure operators and government agencies responsible for safety and security in low-altitude airspace.
Technical specifications provided by O.W.L. include pulsed Doppler processing in the S band (3.0–3.3GHz). The company listed detection ranges of 7.5km for an aircraft (Cessna 172) and vehicles, 4km for a walking person, and 3km for a DJI Phantom IV-sized drone. Operating temperature was listed as –20°C to +60°C.
O.W.L. also said the GA7360LR supports integration with third-party systems including DFR drones and management systems, cameras, video analytics, counter-UAS command-and-control systems, video management systems, and electronic and kinetic countermeasures, alongside configurable alarm zones and automated response triggers.
