IFF Antenna
The IFF Antenna provides friend-or-foe identification coverage from 960 to 1215 MHz, with an omnidirectional radiation pattern maintained across its operating range. It delivers 3 dBi of gain and handles up to 1,000 W peak power, enabling connection to airborne identification systems without imposing a significant weight penalty.
Weighing less than 50 g, the compact antenna operates from -63 to +50°C and at altitudes up to 45,000 ft. Resistance to shock and vibration makes it suitable for aircraft installations exposed to demanding flight and environmental conditions.
