The AN/TPS-75 tactical 3-D radar is described as being an upgrade of the AN/TPS-43/70 family of radars and as featuring `significantly` better electronic counter-countermeasures, increased performance and enhanced reliability and maintainability when compared with its predecessors. As such, it employs an ultra-low sidelobe antenna that is claimed to decrease sidelobe emission by `more than` 50 per cent and to `considerably reduce` the sensor`s vulnerability to anti-radiation missiles. TPS-75 radar forms part of the US Air Force`s (USAF) `Seek Screen` effort which, when launched, was intended to provide the service with a `viable surveillance and command, control and communications capability well into the 21st century`.
