The Type 382 (or H/LJQ-382) is a 3-D naval air search radar developed by the People's Republic of China.[1][2] It uses two back-to-back planar arrays on a rotating mount.[1]

The relationship between the Type 382 and the Russian Fregat MAE-3 radar (NATO reporting name: Top Plate) is unclear. In 2015, Type 382 was identified as the Fregat by Kirchberger[3] and Jane's Fighting Ships,[4] or possibly a reverse engineered version.[5] At the same time, Schwartz stated that the Type 382 was "quite advanced" compared to Russian radar.[6] In 2020, Wertheim used "Top Plate" in conjunction with the Chinese designation.[2]
