History

The Mk 87 FCS (Fire Control System) was proposed for the Patrol frigate, which became the FFG-7 Class. The Mk 87 FCS was an licensed version of the Signaal WM25 fire control system.

The Mk 87 FCS uses a track-while-scan radar fitted in an combined antenna system (CAS), sometimes combined with an additional STIR tracker/illuminator.

Part description

As the fire control system itself (the computers) are not visible in a shipbucket drawing, the part image on this page shows a compilation of the parts directly connected to this fire control system. These can also be found on their own pages. More views of the STIR antenna can be found at Mk 54 STIR
