Recently, a quantum-enhanced radar transmitter operating at microwave frequencies, called a quantum two-mode squeezing radar (QTMS radar), was demonstrated in the laboratory. Inspired by this, we discuss the possibility of building an array of quantum radars. In order for quantum radars to be practically relevant, it is important that an array can be built. We find that it is indeed possible to build such an array, but that the details matter. A quantum illumination radar array may not be very effective, but a QTMS radar array is quite amenable to array signal processing. We also briefly discuss the practical aspects of building a quantum radar array.
