The RF-390 multiband vehicular whip antenna series is
designed for tactical, C3I, or battlefield conditions using new
broadband antenna technology. Its design provides maximum
performance for the latest in multimission military radios; the
AN/PRC-117F, RF-5800M, RF-5800V, and RF-5800U. Now, a
single antenna can provide exceptional gain and
instantaneous bandwidth performance over the 30 to 512
MHz spectrum. This unique electrical design puts the power
pattern on the horizon allowing exceptional LOS and BLOS
communications even in the harshest conditions
The bandwidth is achieved by distributive passive components
avoiding lumps to provide a mechanically strong but flexible
structure. Being passive, there is no need for an antenna
tuner, bandswitching, or operator intervention. The RF-390 is
designed to meet and exceed the rigors of MIL-STD-810 tests
for both mechanical and environmental characteristics, as well
as SINCGARS standards for tactical survivability along with
high-voltage power line protection.
The RF-390 is the ideal choice for multiband radios
because it reduces the vertical signature by
replacing multiple antennas with a single
antenna. Its feed through spring base
mounts directly to a NATO standard 4.5"
bolt circle or Harris RF-292 Universal
Antenna Mount.
