OG-<strong>APG</strong><strong>68</strong>(<strong>V5</strong>) 03/06/2001<br />

directly at the nose of your aircraft, note how the representation is identical in<br />

both the Pie and B Scope display. Finally the target on the right is at 30 off<br />

the nose, but this time to the right. The target is this time pointing away from<br />

the nose of the aircraft, it is heading in the same direction as you are, so is<br />

not facing your aircraft – the pointy end of the arrow faces away from the<br />

bottom of the radar screens.<br />

The <strong>AN</strong>/<strong>APG</strong>-<strong>68</strong>(<strong>V5</strong>) can look 120 by 120 in front of the aircraft, it cannot<br />

however cover all of this area at once, even if it could, it would not be very<br />

useful because of the time that it would take to accomplish a full scan. To get<br />

around this problem the radar allows you some control over where the radar<br />

is pointing, and where it is scanning.<br />
