As EO systems become more capable and affordable, some integrators question whether radar is still necessary. In reality, radar remains the only sensor that provides true all-weather, all-time situational awareness.

On October 16, 2025, the 3rd China Ocean Equipment Expo grandly opened at the Fuzhou Strait International Conference and Exhibition Center. Wuhan Lakeda Science and Technology Co., Ltd. presented its ‘Integrated Radar-Optical System’ and ‘237 Coastal Security Radar Series’ at booth 3A131, becoming a major focus of the exhibition with its ‘Radar + Intelligence’ dual-core technology.

Recent media reports claim that Russian forces are deploying Chinese-made civilian radars to detect drones. Lakeda Radar Systems clarifies its civilian-only position, reiterating its opposition to any military use and its dedication to peaceful technological applications.
