Multi-Band Satcom, Communications & Link 16
240 to 400 MHz, 30 to 512 MHz & 960 to 2500 MHz
SKU: 21-50-80
The 21-50-80 is a rugged multifunction VHF/UHF/L-Band Satcom communications and LINK 16 antenna designed for airborne applications. A high strength vertical shell houses 30 - 512 and 960 - 1220 MHz linear elements that can be used for V/UHF line of sight “LOS” communications or UHF Satcom at low angles of elevation plus LINK 16. This vertical shell also supports a pair of horizontal elements containing four horizontal monopoles connected to provide high angle, circularly polarized UHF Satcom coverage.
