FLIGHT TERMINATION

FLIGHT TERMINATION TRANSMITTER

The Flight Termination Transmitter (FTT) generates precise flight termination signals based on commands from an external controller or dedicated PC software. It produces FM termination signals using customizable IRIG tones at frequencies between 390 MHz and 450 MHz.

Compact, portable, and ruggedly built, it seamlessly integrates with HPAs and functions reliably even under harsh environmental conditions and demanding naval or aerial scenarios. An intuitive GUI allows users to configure operational tones (A, B, C, D, SAFE, ARM, TERM) via an RS-232 PC interface.

Optionally, the system can include an embedded signal-level measurement module for monitoring transmission quality. The transmitter fully meets RCC 319 standards and ensures high reliability and durability through advanced technological design and manufacturing processes.

Key Specifications:

• User-configurable RF center frequency
• Programmable IRIG tone frequencies
• Four distinct tone outputs
• Compatible with 20 standard IRIG tones
• Meets MIL-STD-810G environmental requirements
• Reverse-polarity power input protection
• Lightweight and highly portable
• Compact form factor
• Compliant with RCC 319-14 specifications

FLIGHT TERMINATION RECEIVER

The Programmable Flight Termination Receiver (FTR) is a compact, airborne receiver designed for tone-based flight termination systems. It features a highly sensitive, programmable superheterodyne RF receiver capable of operating at user-defined center frequencies.

Its advanced tone decoder supports customizable decoding of either 3- or 4- tone sequences from a selection of 20 IRIG tones, delivering precise command outputs to flight termination devices. Additionally, the system supports fully fail-safe operations, including programmable tone-loss durations. Built with state-of-the-art technology and production techniques, the receiver ensures reliability and durability under demanding conditions.
