Radar Systems
Radar systems are the eyes of modern defense and aerospace platforms—demanding fast, accurate, and interference-free performance in the most complex electromagnetic environments. Whether mounted on aircraft, ships, or ground-based installations, these systems rely on magnetic components that can deliver clean power, maintain signal integrity, and operate reliably under extreme thermal and mechanical stress. Standex Electronics provides custom-engineered magnetics that meet the high-frequency, high-current, and high-reliability requirements of today’s most advanced radar technologies.
