The basis of the work of over-horizon radar stations is a jump mechanism of propagation of short-range radio waves, which involves the adaptation of the equipment to continuously changing geophysical and noise conditions. The review of the station’s area of responsibility is usually carried out sequentially at a number of frequencies. To assess the probability of correct detection of air objects and other characteristics of over-horizon radar stations, a comprehensive test simulation stand and an algorithm for assessing the current combat capabilities are used. A comprehensive simulation test stand to test and confirm compliance with the achieved characteristics of the station simulates different variants of the air situation in the field of view of the radar. It is proposed to use the technology to obtain the parameters of the routes of scheduled aircraft, which are equipped with dependent observation equipment, compare them automatically with the parameters of the finally detected route of the station and to evaluate the characteristics of over-horizon radar in real helio and geophysical conditions. Thus, the hardware and software complex for testing over-horizon stations for flight air objects using the method of automatic passive review of airspace, including outside the territory of the Russian Federation will allow to evaluate their tactical and technical characteristics in automatic mode, in real conditions of application.
