IntuVue RDR-7000 Weather Radar System
Overview
Honeywell’s IntuVue RDR-7000 Weather Radar System brings our industry-leading IntuVue weather radar technology in a lightweight, more powerful and easily retrofitted single line replacement unit to fit more business aircraft platforms.
The IntuVue RDR-7000 is fully automatic and doesn't require active pilot adjustments of tilt and/or gain for operation. Reducing workload, allows pilots to focus on flying the most comfortable and safest route through weather.
Engineered to provide far superior reliability, accuracy and durability than legacy magnetron-based radar systems, the RDR-7000 offers customers the flexibility to remotely enable advanced software features to provide them the clearest view of weather conditions around the routes they’re accustomed to flying.
Honeywell's RDR 7000 Radar helps in operational costs savings by reducing the delays & downtime caused due to hailstorm, weather incidents and windshears while optimizing routes to reduce diversions and turnbacks.
