  1. Do you have documents regarding the AN/APG-63's performance against specific RCS values? If you do, could you be so kind as to share them with me? I'm doing some background research on the F-15 on the moment and I noticed your thread about the underperformance of the F-15's radar, but if you shared those documents then I'm not seeing them.

      Definitely not, this is a calculated radar range graph 🙂

      And yes they include that info.  I looked for the whitepaper but couldn't find it at this time.

      I'm sleepy now so I'll just share this link.  BeamScanner might be really helpful with any research you might want to do:

      I would certainly not provide classified documents to anyone 🙂  But just because they aren't classified doesn't mean they're available either.

      The thing they posted is pretty much the only available document with APG-63 test results.   If you're looking for something like probability of detection at range, you won't find that.

      I believe ED published the only available excerpt for the original APG-63 in their radar whitepaper.   It is the APG-63 test graph vs. a T33, whose RCS is know (average of 9-10m^2 head on and 6 tail on, if I recall correctly)
