concentrates All available Power into Pencil beams in a fan shaped pattern to pinpoint targets at great distances with extreme Antenna and conventional systems require two or More radar operators and master Fres Canar needs Only one of has triple function Fres Canar computes bearing and Alti tude a Range data is transmitted to batteries to help them seek targets More targets More Speed of scanning
