The AN/SPQ-5 is an guidance radar developed for use with the RIM-2 Terrier missile. This radar was first fitted on the Boston class missile conversion. The first installation was comissioned in in 1955. The AN/SPQ-5 was only used on missile converted ships, notably the Boston class and Providence class.
