JRC JMA-3300: What kind of vessels is this radar suitable for?
The JMA-3300 occupies the niche of "one compact appliance instead of an electronics cabinet." This also determines the range of vessels: where the logging is small, and the requirements for review are as large. Below are typical scenarios where the series works most often.


Tugs, fishing vessels, ferries
This is the primary class for the JMA-3300. On the tug or seiner, the post in the cabin is already clogged, and the radar is needed constantly: narrowness, work in ice conditions, running watches at night. Display 10.4 inches with a keyboard in one case stands in place of the old indicator, without replanning the cabin. RMRS approval closes the issue of documents during the survey.
Small and medium cargo and auxiliary fleet
Small-class dry cargo carriers, bunkerers, port and raid vessels - wherever the marine network and place are limited, and you have to walk in waters with dense traffic. The processing of Semi-ConstaviewTM is on watch here: the true tracks of the targets are visible immediately, the fixed shore does not “float” on the screen.
Second radar on a large ship
On large ships, the JMA-3300 is put as a backup post: it does not require a separate processor cabinet, starts on its own power supply machine and continues to show the situation when the main complex is in service. Independent cable and interfacing with marine data lines are important for this scenario.
Interfacing with other electronics
The full picture on the screen adds up when the radar receives a course from the compass and tag from AIS and GNSS. This is not a “checkmark option”: without a course, target tracks swim away, without AIS, the neighboring vessel remains an anonymous dot. When designing a post, data lines are laid in the same cable path - more in the article about Installation and commissioning of JMA-3300.
When you look the other way
If you need a very compact post with a minimum budget, check out our website. KODEN MDC-7912P radar. If the vessel requires a longer range and an open antenna, there are older versions inside the same JMA-3300 series, and outside the series, large JRC radars begin. Send the type of ship and the area of navigation - let's be honest, where the border passes.
How to order

FAQ
Will the JMA-3300 be suitable for a small tugboat or fishing vessel?
Yes, this is the main class of vessels for the series: the device in one case stands in place of the old indicator, and the approval of the RMRS closes the issue of documents.
Can the JMA-3300 be placed on a large ship with second radar?
Yeah. A separate processor cabinet is not needed, power supply is started on its own machine - the radar continues to work when the main complex is in service.
What do you need to connect to the JMA-3300 to make it complete?
Course from compass and tag from AIS and GNSS. Without a course, target tracks “float away”, without AIS, neighboring ships remain anonymous points.
What if the budget is minimal?
Take a look at the KODEN MDC-7912P compact radar from our catalogue – it covers basic survey tasks in the small fleet.
