3D Radar

Advanced Drone Detection for Bases, Borders, and Critical Infrastructure

Seconds Count. SCANTER Sphera Delivers

Reliable 3D Radar for Airspace Security Across Sectors.

From military bases to critical infrastructure, drones present a fast, low-signature threat. SCANTER Sphera gives you the precision, speed, and flexibility to secure your site—before threats break through.

Act in Seconds. Immediate detection gives you critical time to respond.

Detect What Others Miss. Tracks nano- and microdrones with AI-powered classification.

Deploy Anywhere. Jamming-resistant, field-proven for use on land, at sea, and complex sites.

Drone Detection for CIP and Forward Operating Bases

SCANTER Sphera is Terma’s purpose-built 3D C-UAS radar for military, border, and infrastructure protection. It detects, tracks, and classifies even the smallest airborne threats — making it an ideal detection layer across:

Military Bases – Forward operating posts, naval installations, and airfields
Borders – Situational awareness and boundary protection
Airports – Perimeter and airspace defense
Energy Infrastructure – Wind farms, oil & gas, and power plants
Ports – Terminals, shipyards, and coastal access
VIP and Government Sites – Defense against surveillance and sabotage

SCANTER Sphera 3D Radar On Desert Base 1000X1000

Application

Detect Evolving Threats

Modern drones are small, fast, and fly below traditional radar. SCANTER Sphera specializes in detecting Class 1 drones—nano, micro, and mini—while cutting through clutter. Whether it’s a lone quadcopter or a swarm, SCANTER Sphera sees it coming.

Benefit

Time to React

Extended range means earlier warning. SCANTER Sphera increases your detection envelope by up to 50% over comparable systems, giving operators and C2 teams critical time to assess, engage, and neutralize threats before they reach your assets.

SCANTER Sphera - System Functionality

SCANTER Sphera 3D Radar Sensor

Compact, pulse-based radar with 360° volumetric coverage, high update rate and simultaneous multi-target tracking. Optimized for low-RCS targets, it uses micro-Doppler and kinematic-based classification to minimize false alarms, even in complex environments.

Software-Defined Radar Core

Continuously updated for site- and mission-specific needs. Operators can adjust detection profiles, power levels, and threat models — keeping the system adaptive and future-proof without hardware swaps.

AI-Based Signal Processing

SCANTER Sphera’s AI technology analyzes motion, velocity, and micro-Doppler in real time, distinguishing drones from birds or clutter. Classification models improve over time with continuous data updates.

Sensor Networking

Link up to eight SCANTER Sphera units using Track Viewer for unified, perimeter-wide coverage. Sensor fusion provides a comprehensive radar picture, eliminating blind spots across complex sites.

Track Viewer (Optional)

Terma’s display module for real-time monitoring of drone tracks, type, heading, altitude, and classification. Works standalone or alongside integrated C2 systems.

Command & Control Integration

Plug-and-play compatibility with Terma’s T.react CIP and other CMS platforms via open interfaces, enabling seamless integration into layered defense architectures.

Environmental and Physical Design

Rugged, weatherproof, and low-maintenance, SCANTER Sphera is built for harsh conditions and operates across extreme temperatures. Its compact, lightweight design supports both fixed and deployed installation scenarios.
