Multi-function UHF LOS/Satcom L-Band and GPS Antenna

The 21-50-73 is a rugged multifunction UHF LOS, UHF Satcom, L-Band and GPS antenna designed for airborne applications. A high strength aerodynamic vertical shell houses a 225 to 450 MHz linear element that can be used for UHF line of sight “LOS” communications or UHF Satcom at low angles of elevation. This vertical shell also supports a “Bat-Wing” shape horizontal element containing a pair of cross dipoles, connected to provide high angle, right hand circularly polarized UHF Satcom coverage and an L1/L2 active GPS antenna.

A high power grounded L-Band element is integrated into the antenna base. The antenna is completely sealed and filled with closed cell foam for long term environmental protection and reliability. 

  • Hi angle UHF Satcom & MUOS coverage
  • Lo Angle UHF LOS communications
  • Covers L1 and L2 GPS Frequencies
  • EPLRS compatible
  • Suitable for TACAN/IFF/LINK 16
  • Low wingspan minimizes loading on aircraft structure
  • Fixing holes compatible with 437S1-H
  • Designed to MIL-STD-810 Environmental Requirements
  • Erosion protection over all leading edge surfaces
