Netanya, Israel, (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RADA's Multi-Mission Hemispheric Radar (MHR) and Compact Hemispheric Radar (CHR) production-standard prototypes are undergoing highly-successful field tests and demonstrations in Israel and abroad.

The MHR is currently demonstrating the RPS-40 Hostile Fire Detection mission showing excellent performance of threats detection and localization of the fire sources.
