Abstract: A modular phased array antenna that includes a plurality of modular antenna array blocks assembled together as a single antenna array and an array face having an array plate and a radiator and radome assembly for each modular block interlocked and aligned to create a single monolithic array face. Each modular antenna array block includes: a plurality of transmit/receive integrated multichannel module (TRIMM) cards, each TRIMM card including power and beamforming signals, where power and beamforming signals are connected in parallel to each modular antenna array block, a plurality of radiators for radiating antenna signals having a radiator face, a radome integrated with the plurality of radiators and interfacing directly to the radiator face, where the radome does not extend beyond the radiator face, and a frame for supporting the TRIMM cards.
