Key Honeywell Advantages:
Next generation
A fully automated, higher resolution weather radar system with airborne ground/sea mapping system.
Reliable and efficient
Solid-state transmitters utilizing pulse compression provide reduced weight and power consumption, advanced coherent processing, and increased reliability over magnetron-based transmitters.
Compact and easy to install
Best-in-class technology from our RDR-4000 IntuVue radar systems, integrated into a small, lightweight package.
Available software upgrades
Advanced features can be added at any time, including turbulence detection, advanced mapping, target detection and additional hazard features (lightning and hail detection), and forward looking (predictive) windshear.
Honeywell’s RDR-7000 improves pilot and passenger safety by providing new features in detection, analysis and avoidance.
| Detection | Analysis | Avoidance |
|---|---|---|
Automated 3D volumetric scans up to 60,000 ft and 320 NM ahead | Accurately analyzes and displays weather data
| Provides pilot more time for optimal decision-making |
| First weather radar to detect turbulence within 60 NM | Reduces pilot interactions needed to manipulate the radar and interpret the data | Enhances safety and passenger comfort by avoiding turbulence |
| Predicts wind shear out to 5 NM, critical on final approaches | Allows pilot to analyze slices of weather from 0 to 60,000 ft in 1,000 ft increments | Saves pilots time and reduces workload |
| Identifies hail and lightning | Provides data so pilots can make optimal routing adjustments | Minimizes weather-related damage to aircraft |
