According to PK-KQ newspaper, Vietnam has officially operated RV-02 - an anti-stealth radar that is considered more powerful than the version produced by Belarus.

In the article "Wings guarding the Northeast sky" in the PK-KQ newspaper, issue 2, January 2018, it was reported that the RV-02 radar against stealth targets made in Vietnam has been assigned to Radar Station 61, Regiment 291 - Ba Be Radar Group to guard the Northeast sky.

Based on this information, up to this point, many RV-02 radar sets have been produced and deployed to radar stations to promptly supplement a new, modern type of weapon capable of capturing stealth aircraft, creating new combat power for the Vietnam Air Defense - Air Force (PK-KQ).

According to public information, the RV-02 radar complex was born with complete initiative in design, manufacturing and processing technology at all stages, based on the RV-01 product platform in cooperation with Belarus.

The limitations of RV-01 have been studied and overcome with the most advanced applications in radar manufacturing technology. RV-02 has achieved many breakthroughs in technical and tactical features.

The RV-02 system is integrated on 2 specially designed equipment vehicles to ensure mobility, of which only 2 cars and some basic equipment are imported, the rest, the Military Technical Institute of PK-KQ coordinates with other units to proactively design and manufacture, from mechanics to software.

RV-02 has a 21.6m long antenna array with 28 elements designed and manufactured with advanced technology, ensuring target detection at a distance of hundreds of kilometers in all different terrain and weather conditions.

On the fixed platform, there are positions for installing optical fiber cables to transmit waves. This is also an important improvement of RV-02 in signal transmission because optical cables help the signal transmission process to be carried out much faster and more accurately than high-frequency cable systems like old radar stations.

With RV-02, the transmission and reception process is optimized with 28 digital processing channels, equivalent to 28 antenna elements, and 28 standard-designed transmitter-receiver blocks. The technological initiative of RV-02 is also demonstrated in the optimal designs of the body, base, and column.

The height of the RV-02 antenna array is 11m from the ground, this height ensures that the system can best track aerial targets within a range of hundreds of kilometers. However, with a rotation speed of 6 rpm, the radar body and base system are designed with special criteria.

The radar platform is swivel-shaped, while ensuring stability to support the entire antenna array weighing approximately 18 tons. The oscilloscope car is simply arranged with 3 computers, like a miniature command post, in which the systems are arranged in an integrated way to minimize space and maximize efficiency.

Optical cables are used to replace the cables of older generations of radars. Accordingly, the radar signal transmission speed reaches optimal capacity, and the LAN system is also designed with the best processing and communication efficiency between the coordinating units on RV-02.

RV-02 with the participation of automatic hydraulic control system, has deployment-recovery time of only about 10-15 minutes, much lower than the deployment-recovery time of old radar stations of 45 minutes - 1 hour.

The operation of RV-02 is very simple and effective. Modern equipment system helps RV-02 achieve superior features such as the ability to track targets with small reflection area or use stealth technology.
