To differentiate between different forces and thus various color finishes, we’ve named them;
- The HAWK-1+ radio is powder-coated in a Light Sky Grey for GTA/AIR FORCE applications.
112-160Mhz and 225-400Mhz; AM 50W and in FM, 200W
- The SHARK1-VU+ radio is powder-coated in a Dark Grey for NAVAL applications.
30Mhz to 512Mhz; AM 25W and in FM, 75W
- The BADGER1+ radio is powder-coated in an Olive Drab or Desert Tan for ARMY applications.
30Mhz to 512Mhz; AM 25W and in FM, 75W
The 19″ Rack Mountable Radios has a 150% larger Screen and a much larger keypad compared to the L:eopard1 and Cheetah3 manpack radios.
The control head with the external speaker fits into a 19″ Rack.
A narrower option of 14.5″ mounting in vehicles and aircraft is possible by simply unmounting the external speaker.
The control head includes is a 2-way antenna switch that would switch between the VHF and UHF bands for a typical airband antenna connection.
Most inputs and outputs are routed also to the rear of the control head, thereby cleaning up the look when rack mounted.
The HAWK-1 meets the ICAO specifications in AM Airband communications.
