Teledyne FLIR Defense, a unit of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE: TDY), announced it has built and shipped its 3,000th Ranger surveillance radar system from its production facility in Laval, Quebec.

The Ranger series has been deployed to more than 40 countries for border security, defense operations, and counter-unmanned aircraft systems applications. Uses include securing borders, airports, seaports, and critical infrastructure.

Radar manufacturing at the Laval site began in 2005. The Ranger R20SS received a National Engineering Product Award from Engineers Canada, an recognition given to engineering achievements in the country.

"Celebrating the 3,000th Ranger radar manufactured and deployed from Laval is a landmark moment reflecting both the talent and tenacity of our team," said Pierre Poitevin, Vice President of Radar Systems. "This milestone is a testament to our skilled engineers and Canada's significant contributions to the global defense industry."

A software upgrade announced this year added 360-degree Fast Scan capabilities, higher refresh rates, improved tracking accuracy, greater elevation coverage, and AI-enabled radar processing with target classification.

The Ranger systems can operate from fixed or mobile sites and are available in multiple configurations, detection ranges, and scan rates.
