The AN/APG-83 Scalable Agile Beam Radar (SABR) is a full-performance active electronically scanned array (AESA) fire control radar for the Lockheed Martin F-16V Viper and other aircraft developed by Northrop Grumman. In a 2013 competition, Lockheed Martin selected SABR as the AESA radar for the F-16 modernization and update programs of the United States Air Force and Republic of China Air Force.
The capabilities of this advanced AESA are derived from the F-22's AN/APG-77 and the F-35's AN/APG-81. It is designed to fit F-16 aircraft with no structural, power or cooling modifications. The SABR is scalable to fit other aircraft platforms and mission areas.
