ATC Radome – Jeju Island, South Korea

Jeju is an island formed entirely from volcanic eruptions situated about 40km off the south coast of the Korean Peninsula and is the honeymoon capital of Korea. Its frequent rains and temperate climate make it similar to the Hawaiian islands of
the United States.

AlanDick recently supplied Raytheon with an 11.8m radome, which provides Korea’s ATC service with full weather protection for its
radar system on the island.

The radar supplier provided the details of the project requirement along with local contact details and tower interface – AlanDick’s specialist team took care of everything else.



 

This project is a good example of the type of contract which AlanDick usually supplies.
When contracted to, we take responsibility for all aspects of supply until the customer is able to apply power to their equipment – this includes interfaces, local labour support and assisting clients with their own equipment to install.

Installation of the radome was completed in little over a week and illustrates AlanDick's unique ability to manage projects end-to-end, on time and with a high level of quality.
