AeroShield - Low Drag Radome

COST SAVINGS BENEFITS
• Highly optimized aerodynamic shape reduces drag and
increases fuel savings.
• Bird Strike compliance with FAA Issue Papers for Large
Radome Installations reduces certification time and cost.
• ARINC 791 compliant installation eliminates costly
over-engineered installations.
• Simplifies maintenance inspections and reduces life
cycle costs.
• Advanced adapter plate design optimization
minimizes system weight.
ARINC 791 MOUNTING STANDARD COMPLIANT
• Creates a simplified & standardized installation.
• Provides future-proofing of SATCOM installations,
allowing future SATCOM upgrades when available.
• Provides for commonality & interchangeability across
entire fleets.
• Provides for easy de-modification during end-of-lease
restoration.
KEY FEATURES
• RF performance is optimized for Ku band only,
providing maximum RF transmissivity.
• Applicable to Ku band broadband data and DBS-TV
SATCOM systems.

 

KEY FEATURES
• Aerodynamic radome and adapter plate follows the
curvature of the aircraft skin without requiring a large
installation doubler, sealants, or fasteners through the
aircraft skin.
• Installation fittings attach to variable aircraft frame
spacings for maximum installation flexibility.
• Extra safety design features include bird strike
hardness. Radome is compliant with revised FAA
guidance on Radome bird strike testing.
• DER approved loads report is available to support STC.
• Radome kit is retrofittable to replace current higher drag
radomes in use today.
