Abstract:

Data were acquired to define the I-band radar cross section and glint characteristics of the Improved BQM-34A CAS target drone equipped with Collocated active radar Augmentation Scoring System. Monostatic and bistatic radar measurements were made on a flight worthy BQM-34A. This report provides a summary of the measurement conditions and reproductions of test plots obtained. Also included are reproductions of the antenna gain patterns associated with the digidops scoring system used with the BQM-34A target system.
