BAE Systems’ high-tech 3D radar system called Artisan has been successfully installed to the Royal Navy’s future aircraft carrier, HMS Queen Elizabeth.
With the help of the cutting edge radar operators will be able to track up to 800 potential targets simultaneously and to detect objects as small as a tennis ball and traveling at three times the speed of sound more than 15 miles away.
Cramming a full day’s work into one minute, the time lapse video below shows us how the British warship builders lifted the device (weighing 1543 pounds!) into place 100 feet above the flight deck.
