A non-line of sight obstacle detection and localization system and method of detecting and localizing a non-line of sight object include receiving reflections at a detection system of a moveable platform, the reflections including direct and multipath reflections, identifying the reflections associated with static targets to retain the reflections associated with moving targets, and distinguishing between line of sight objects and non-line of sight objects among the moving targets. The method also includes localizing the non-line of sight objects relative to the platform and indicating approaching non-line of sight objects among the non-line of sight objects, the approaching non-line of sight objects moving toward the platform on a path that intersects the platform.
