The dual mode seeker (10) comprises a first sensing system (11) configured to detect a target, a second sensing system (12) configured to detect a target, and a space envelope (13) configured to be arranged in a missile's nose (2). The first sensing system (11) comprises an active radar transmitter and a radar receiver. The second sensing system (12) comprises a passive optical detector. The space envelope (13) comprises a first channel (14) and a second channel (15) arranged adjacent to each other in a seeker's radial direction. The first sensing system (11) is arranged in the first channel (14) and the second sensing system (12) is arranged in the second channel (15) of the space envelope (13).
