Bennett Transports First Radar Panel Successfully for Lockheed Martin

The first radar panel for the United States Missile Defense Agency’s (MDA) Long Range Discrimination Radar (LRDR) Program was recently delivered by Bennett Motor Express (Bennett). Bennett driver, Eric Hessler, successfully transported the cargo from Lockheed Martin’s Moorestown, New Jersey facility to the Clear Air Force Station in Alaska. The delivery of the radar panel marks a key milestone for the LRDR Program.

According to Air Force Technology, LRDR provides precision metric data to improve ballistic defense discrimination. The radar will replace existing sensors in the Ballistic Missile Defense System.

“The technology implemented today and our enhanced ballistic missile tracking put into place for our Department of Defense is growing rapidly,” said Ted Gaze, Bennett Motor Express Vice President of Supply Chain, Projects and Sales. “We are excited to be a part of this project and to be a part of the solution that helps protect our country.”

BME plans to deliver a total of 20 radar panels between now and next year for Lockheed Martin and the LRDR Program.
