Which is great news; I'm looking forward to the cost of phased array radar dropping for all applications (military, weather, communications, life safety, etc), as well as improved colocation capabilities (for example, the next gen NEXRAD weather network is going to be a combined phased array weather and aircraft transportation surveillance [TSA & FAA] system enabled by solid state phased array hardware [+], which is going to save $5 billion dollars over the system lifetime).
