IFF Dipole Antenna

The 21-40-10 is a small diameter airborne L-Band dipole antenna, principally intended for helicopters installations where its broad elevation beam provides excellent omni-directional radiation coverage.

Designed as an end fed “bazooka” dipole, the antenna uses a lightweight fiberglass body with foamed-in-place feed network and an aluminum alloy structural radiating element. The element is directly grounded to provide lightning protection. Being a dipole, the antenna is largely independent of the shape and size of surface upon which it is mounted.

The antenna is secured to the airframe with 4 8-36 UNF countersunk screws. 

  • Small cross-sectional profile
  • Lightweight
  • Designed to MIL-STD-810 environmental requirements
  • Excellent IFF and Tacan (LINK16) radiation patterns
  • Fully environmentally sealed
  • N-type female connector
  • Designed for Helicopter Installations
  • Radiation pattern relatively independent of ground plane
