The Daryal-type radar () (NATO: Pechora) is a Soviet bistatic phased-array early warning radar. It consists of two separate large active phased-array antennas separated by around to . The transmitter array is 30x40 m (98x131 ft) and the receiver is 80x80 m (262x252 ft) in size. The system is a VHF system operating at a wavelength of 1.5 to 2 meters (150 to 200 MHz). Its initial transmit capacity was 50 $4 with a target capacity of 350 MW. Originally, at least seven Daryal facilities were planned, however, only the first two facilities completed, Pechora and Qabala, were ever operational.

  • The Daryal-type radar () (NATO: Pechora) is a Soviet bistatic phased-array early warning radar. It consists of two separate large active phased-array antennas separated by around to . The transmitter array is 30x40 m (98x131 ft) and the receiver is 80x80 m (262x252 ft) in size. The system is a VHF system operating at a wavelength of 1.5 to 2 meters (150 to 200 MHz). Its initial transmit capacity was 50 $4 with a target capacity of 350 MW. The designer of the radars, RTI Mints, says that each Daryal receiver is 100m x 100m and has 4,000 cross dipoles. Each transmitter is 40m x 40m with 1,260 modules, each capable of 300 kW. They say the radar has a range of 6,000 km with targets between 0.1 m2 and 0.12 m2. It can track 20 objects at the same time and can cope with four jamming sources. The designer, V Ivantsov, was awarded the title "Hero of Socialist Labour" for his work on the Daryal. The first Daryal type radar was built at Olenegorsk in the early 1970s. It was the receiver building only and was called a Daugava rather than a Daryal. It used the transmitter of the adjacent Dnestr-M radar. Following this, in 1975, two Daryal radars were constructed in Pechora and Gabala. In 1979 new Daryal-U radars were planned for Balkhash-9 near Sary Shagan in Kazakhstan, Mishelevka in Irkutsk and Yeniseysk-15 near Krasnoyarsk in Siberia. Two Daryal-UM systems were to be constructed at in Skrunda, Latvia and Mukachevo, Ukraine. Originally, at least seven Daryal facilities were planned, however, only the first two facilities completed, Pechora and Qabala, were ever operational. The American Clinton administration offered financial assistance in completing the Mishelevka facility in exchange for amending the ABM treaty to allow US deployment of a national missile defense system. The Mukachevo one in the Ukraine was never completed after the fall of the Soviet Union and the Skrunda facility was demolished by a newly independent Latvia, arranged by the US Department of Defence. The Yeniseysk (Krasnoyarsk) Daryal-U site caused concern in the west over compliance with the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty during its construction in the 1980s. Article VI(b) requires radars to be on the periphery of national territory and to face outwards and the Yeniseysk radar faced over Siberia. Following negotiations, in September 1989 the Soviets admitted it was a violation of the treaty, construction ceased and the facility was eventually dismantled.
