Quantum radar

Quantum radar is a technology which has been developed and patented [ cite web | url = https://publications.european-patent-office.org/PublicationServer/documentpdf.jsp?PN=EP1750145%20EP%201750145&iDocId=6181555&iepatch=.pdf | title = European patent number EP1750145 | accessdate = 2007-03-17 ] by defense contractor Lockheed Martin. [ cite web | url = http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/story/0,,2027298,00.html | title = US defence contractor looks for quantum leap in radar research | accessdate = 2007-03-17 ] It intends to create a radar system which provides a better resolution and higher detail than classical radar can provide.

The technology is hoped to work by using Photon entanglement to allow several entangled photons to have shorter wavelengths that would allow detection of small detail while having a group wavelength that allows long distance transmission.
