THOUSAND OAKS, Calif., 21 April 2008. TECOM Industries Inc. in Thousand Oaks, Calif., will develop and qualify the next generation instrumentation antenna for a U.S. Navy missile under terms of a cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA) with the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) at China Lake Naval Weapons Center in Ridgecrest, Calif.
The conformal, dual-band antenna provides GPS and S-band telemetry, and is part of an instrumentation package to support future U.S. Air Force and Navy flight test and training.
Under the agreement, TECOM is working with NAWCWD engineers at Point Mugu Naval Air Station, Calif., to design the antenna subsystem, consisting of a dual-band antenna with integrated low noise amplifier, filter and limiter.
