Abstract
A phased array RADAR aperture assembly is formed of a plurality of support trusses arranged parallel to each other and supporting a plurality of RADAR modular aperture sections. Each of the RADAR modular aperture sections includes a modular column extending the length of the RADAR modular aperture sections and supporting the RADAR modular aperture section, wherein each of the modular column is configured to connect to a modular column of another RADAR modular aperture section in an end-to-end connection, wherein the end-to-end connection is made on the top surface of one of the plurality of support trusses and aligns two adjacent RADAR modular aperture sections with respect to each other and forms a seamless joint between the two adjacent RADAR modular aperture sections.
