RBE2

RBE2 (French: Radar à Balayage Electronique 2 plans) is operating in the X-band multimode radar for fighter aircrafts. The first version used a passive electronically scanning array. The improved RBE2-AA radar system uses an active electronically scanning array (AESA) with about 838 Transmit/Receive modules in Gallium-Arsenide technology.

RBE2 was developed during the 1990s for the French Dassault Rafale combat aircraft.
