Zoopark-1 (Russian: Зоопарк, lit. 'zoo') 1L219 is a counter-battery radar system developed by Almaz-Antey for the Soviet Armed Forces. It is a mobile active electronically scanned array radar (based on a tracked MT-LBu chassis) for the purpose of enemy field-artillery acquisition. The system can detect mortar shells at a distance of up to 20 kilometers, up to 30 kilometers for artillery shells and up to 50 kilometers for ground-to-air rockets, determining location of origin of a fire. Moving ground targets can be detected at a distance of up to 40 kilometers.[1] It reached initial operating status in 1989.[2]
The later 1L260 / 1L261 variant was designated Zoopark-1M.[3]
