Raytheon, an RTX business, has received a contract from Blue Raven to produce 120 SharpSight radars. The order represents the largest single purchase for the system to date.
SharpSight is a platform-agnostic, multi-domain surveillance radar suited for manned and unmanned platforms. It supports missions including anti-surface warfare, border protection, coastal monitoring, search and rescue, and long-range surveillance. The radar features a software-defined, modular, and scalable architecture that enables upgrades and multimode performance across maritime, land, and air domains. Additional applications encompass overland mapping, environmental monitoring, and biological detection.
Blue Raven, previously known as Crestwood Technology Group, will handle global resale and distribution. Raytheon is responsible for manufacturing and sustaining the radars. The arrangement aims to broaden access to the surveillance technology for international customers.
The deal was reported on May 6, 2026, from McKinney, Texas.
