Summary

AvL 9066FA 90x66cm Military Motorized Tri-Band FlyAway Antenna 2-Port X (Military/WGS/XTAR)

AvL's 90cm Compact FlyAway Military antenna systems offer superior performance in a truly compact, lightweight and portable package. The Model 9066 antenna systems can be packed into backpacks or cases and flown or carried anywhere, then set up and operational within minutes.  

AvL’s FlyAway Military antennas  are designed to meet and exceed the highest performance requirements around the world to guarantee both satellite authority compliance and peak in performance, reliability and availability.

Each Flyaway Antenna is priced to include the AvL carbon fiber antenna and auto-acquisition controller for ease of operation. As with all AvL antenna systems, no laptop is necessary to operate the controller, the antennas interface with any modem, RF electronics, or satellite service.

AvL 9066FA 90x66cm Military Antenna Systems feature:
• Airline Checkable Pack-up (Overnight Air Freightable)
• Configurable Bases: Low (std.), Tripod or Case-Based
• High volume production model
• 90x66cm Heavy-Duty 5-Piece Carbon-Fiber Reflector with 25% more gain than comparable antennas
• Compact motorized AvL Cable Drive for reliable positioning
• Unique motorized polarization drive system with rotation of reflector to maintain alignment with orbital arc
• One button auto-acquisition controller
• Standard 2-port Ku-band precision feed
• Optional feeds:  2-port Ku-band mode-match, 2-port Ka-band commercial, 2-port Ka-band military (WGS ready), and 2-port X-band military (WGS ready) with an optional Rx/Tx reject filter kit
• Interfaces with all types of RF electronics and satellite services 
• 10 minute set-up

While the vast majority of military applications to date have relied on commercial satellite interoperability, especially at Ku-band, AvL is now leading the industry in the delivery of systems that will operate over the next generation of military satellites, including Xtar (X-band) and the new US Army Wideband Global Satellite (WGS) constellation (X- and Ka-band). Most of our military antennas can be offered with upgradability to X- and Ka-bands of operation.

AvL antennas interface easily with all RF systems and are compliant with FCC and Intelsat requirements for 2° spacing as well as optional models for meeting Eutelsat and Asiasat criteria. AvL antennas are also in the certification process for operation over the US Army DSCS and WGS satellites.
