The U.S. Army Research Laboratory has developed the Spectrally Agile Frequency-Incrementing Reconfigurable (SAFIRE) radar, which is capable of imaging concealed/buried targets using forward- and side-looking configurations. The SAFIRE radar is vehicle-mounted and operates from 300 MHz–2 GHz; the step size can be adjusted in multiples of 1 MHz. It is also spectrally agile and capable of excising frequency bands, which makes it ideal for operation in congested and/or contested radio frequency (RF)
