A broad band multimode seeker system for a missile includes a wide band phased array transmitter/receiver unit incorporating a wafer scale phased array device with a bandwidth of about 2 GHz to 35 GHz. A multimode intermediate frequency unit selectively generates radar and jamming waveforms and measures parameters of reflected radar and external emissions of RF energy. A guidance processor manages the front end assets for selective active or semiactive radar searching and tracking, and simultaneous searching for, tracking of, homing on, and applying a selection of electronic countermeasures to, multiple defensive radars. Confirmation of an assigned target is made through correlation of received RF signals with libraries of expected defensive system parameters and high resolution target profiles and preloaded target geographical coordinates.
