Multifunction Array Radar (MAR) - amerykański wielofunkcyjny radar ze skanowaniem fazowym, uważany za pierwszy tego typu radar na świecie. Opracowany pierwotnie dla systemu antybalistycznego Sentinel, po anulowaniu tego programu, stał się elementem systemu Safeguard, w którym zastąpiony został nowocześniejszym radarem Perimeter Acquisition Radar (PAR).

MAR-I radar with protective domes.jpg
Another view of the MAR-I radar system built at White Sands Missile Range in the mid-1960s. In this image, taken from in front of the north-facing antenna, protective covers have been slid up over the antenna elements, riding upward on the dark-colored rails from their underground storage. The fencing in the foreground prevents stray signals from the transmitter being received on the receiver behind it. A similar fence on the top of the central dome does the same for the Nike Hercules target radar placed there, which was used to calibrate range measurements by the MAR during testing.
