초록

Radar system plays a crucial role in modern defense systems, and its development has become increasingly important worldwide. This study assesses the radar technology levels by country and explores development strategies for South Korea based on a comparative analysis. The findings indicate that South Korea's radar technology level stands at 81 % of the most advanced country, which is 1 %p lower than the overall national defense science and technology level. While South Korea has recently made progress through the independent development of AESA(Active Electronically Scanned Array) radar, a technological gap still remains in underdeveloped and unacquired areas. To address this issue, this study suggests development strategies from both policy/institutional and R&D perspectives. The proposed strategies are expected to enhance the self-sufficiency of South Korea's radar systems and reduce the technological disparity with advanced countries.
