answer text <p>The TPS 77 Radars were funded by wind farm developers, who proposed them as the only globally available Air Defence Radar that had proven wind farm mitigation capabilities. The Ministry of Defence (MOD) therefore followed a Single Source Procurement process. Other radar manufacturers now claim to be able to provide this capability and the MOD is following a Competitive Procurement Process for the Deployable Radar Project. There is no difference between the two procurements in terms of compliance as both adhere to EU procurement regulations.</p> more like this
