NGC to Equip Paraguay with Advanced Air Surveillance Radar

Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) will supply its AN/TPS-78 Advanced Capability (ADCAP) ground-based long-range air surveillance radars to Paraguay through the U.S. Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program, marking Paraguay’s first-ever FMS partnership with the U.S. This acquisition enhances Paraguay’s air surveillance capabilities, providing the ability to precisely detect and track manned and unmanned aircraft within its national airspace.

Greg Teitelbaum, vice president, land and maritime sensors, Northrop Grumman: “The Northrop Grumman AN/TPS-78 ADCAP radar provides the long-range coverage and precision tracking required by the Paraguayan Air Force to monitor and secure the country’s airspace. Northrop Grumman is committed to rapidly delivering this vital technology.”

During a recent meeting with Paraguayan President Santiago Pena, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio discussed Paraguay’s acquisition of the Northrop Grumman radar, the economic benefits of the agreement, and its support of Paraguay’s counter narcotics and counter weapons trafficking missions.
