CR-FX18 — X-Band Long-Range FMCW Radar
X-band long-range FMCW radar with search-and-track operation and 360° turntable coverage, detecting 0.01m² drones beyond 8km.
Because this product has long-range target detection, low-altitude surveillance, and multi-target tracking capabilities, it is subject to China’s dual-use item export control requirements. For products subject to control code 6A108.a (radar equipment), we will complete the required compliance review and any necessary export licensing procedures in accordance with the law before export.
The buyer must cooperate by providing end-user, end-use, non-re-export/non-transfer undertakings, and other necessary documentation. We supply only to lawful, transparent end users that have passed compliance review.

The CR-FX18 is an X-band long-range FMCW radar that detects 0.01m² RCS drones at ranges beyond 10km within a 20km instrumented range. Azimuth mechanical scanning combined with elevation DBF provides 360° coverage to 3000m altitude, tracking 500 targets simultaneously. Its low-power continuous-wave emission improves safety for nearby personnel and equipment while resisting interception, and combined search-and-track operation maintains continuous situational awareness for wide-area low-altitude security.
Key Features
Detection & Coverage
- Mechanical azimuth scanning combined with elevation Digital Beam Forming (DBF) achieves extensive coverage in azimuth and elevation;
- A high-performance signal processor enables real-time detection and tracking of multiple targets across the entire field of view, capably handling large-area, multi-target complex scenarios;
- Advanced signal processing algorithms and system hardware architecture deliver outstanding accuracy in distance, speed, azimuth and altitude measurements, providing stable and precise perception data for command decision-making and target tracking/countermeasures.
Tracking & Recognition
- Under high refresh rate conditions with advanced tracking filter algorithms, the radar significantly enhances its tracking capability for high-speed, highly maneuverable targets;
- Sophisticated clutter suppression effectively extracts weak target signals in challenging electromagnetic environments characterized by strong ground clutter or weather clutter, while maintaining an extremely low false alarm probability;
- With extremely high visibility under clutter, the radar continuously and stably tracks ultra-low-altitude moving targets in the clutter environment of urban buildings.
Safety & Low Interceptability
- The continuous wave working system keeps transmission power at a low level, effectively enhancing operational safety for nearby equipment and personnel;
- Compared with pulse radar, the risk of electromagnetic interception is greatly reduced, and the anti-interference and concealment performance is more outstanding.
Deployment & Maintenance
- An intelligent human-machine interface design makes the radar quick and easy to learn;
- The lightweight, modular structural design enables rapid deployment and retraction, supporting high-mobility operations.
