The MM/SPQ-2 was an Italian naval radar produced by SMA. It was a multifunction radar performing the functions of surface and low altitude search as well as navigation.[1] The radar equipped many ships of the Italian Navy, including the Template:Sclass-s, Template:Sclass-s, Template:Sclass-s, Template:Sclass-s and Vittorio Veneto, and, in its upgraded SPQ-2D form, was exported to Canada for the Template:Sclass-s. It was developed into the MM/SPS-702 and MM/SPS-703.[2]
