The flight took place on Jun. 23 at Eglin Air Force Base. Testing is being performed by 413th Flight Test Squadron.
The new radar allows special forces to fly their aircraft at 100ft above ground level in straight and turning flight at speed up to 300kts.
It is designed to replace the AN/APQ-174, AN/APQ-186 and AN/APQ-170.
