Thales has announced it is to supply additional I-Master SAR/GMTI all-weather tactical surveillance radars to the Royal Jordanian Air Force.

The contract announced at the Paris Air Show follows the company's delivery and installation of the radar system onto their Royal Jordanian Air Force's AC-235 aircraft last year.

"Thales is particularly pleased to be able to supply our I-Master radar to the Royal Jordanian Air Force, with whom we have shared a long history over many years of collaboration in the delivery of ISR capabilities," said Eddie Awang, vice president in charge of Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance business at Thales.

I-Master is a compact and lightweight moving target indication radar with synthetic aperture. It provides high-fidelity imagery for classification and positioning with the ability to accurately detect and locate moving targets at long stand-off ranges.

Details as to the number of units to be supplied by Thales, their delivery schedule and price were not disclosed.
