The phase changes due to target motion and attitude perturbation of the vessel are compensated. A 2-D ISAR imaging method is enhanced to acquire 3-D-compatible images of uncooperative targets. The target motion parameters are fine-tuned iteratively to better focus the target image. A (ζh, ζv) plane is proposed to display 3-D targets for visual-like perception. The 2-D ISAR images, thus, focused on the preserve features of the original 3-D targets, including shape and size. Imaging of several aerial targets is simulated to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach.Attitude perturbation | inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) | iterative focusing | visual-like perceptionjournal article10.1109/JSTARS.2023.32941352-s2.0-85164700938https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85164700938
