The 50W Flight Termination System was specifically designed for use with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV’s), missile systems, and aerial target drones and is currently in operation supporting various missions worldwide. Designed to be IRIG 313-01 and 319-14 compliant, it is a rack mount unit used for flight termination and command. The unit accepts AC power and generates a modulated RF output FM signal suitable for interrogation of IRIG standard flight termination receivers and a variety of command receiver/decoders.
The basic FTS features three tone switches on the front panel that can be factory set to the frequencies of our choice. The unit also features thumbwheel switches for setting the carrier frequency from 406 MHz to 450 MHz in 100 kHz steps as well as a carrier ON/OFF witch. Internally generated command tones module the synthesized RF carrier to produce a 50 Watt (minimum) RF output. Upon power up, the FTS will immediately transmit the FM carrier frequency and the three tone command switches can be turned ON/OFF independently to allow the operator to output any command tone sequence. There are many different variations of the unit available. Individual tone selection, FTS command tone sequences, switch configuration, RF output power, and many other options are available to meet any mission requirement.
