Description
The GNEYS-5S is a Soviet airborne target detection (search) radar.
Vehicles equipped with this radar
General info / usage
The GNEYS-5S only a target detection radar, so cannot track targets or provide a lead indicator. It does not scan for targets; instead radar blips update instantly and continuously on the radar display, providing an accurate indication of where the targets are. As a trade-off the radar has a short range of only 7 km and relatively narrow detection angles.

Comparison with analogues
Compared to other target detection radars the GNEYS-5S has a poor detection range of only 7 km. It also has a fairly poor ±30° azimuth scan angle, but the elevation scan angle (±20°) is very good. The radar display also update instantly unlike most other radars.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Instantly updating radar display
Cons:
- Poor range of 8 km
- Easily cluttered
History
The GNEYS-5S was developed in 1944 by V. Tikhomirov. It had two different displays, one for the pilot which directed him towards the target and one for the radar officer who got a bigger overview.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
