AN/ARC-171(V) UHF Radio/UHF SATCOM TRANSCEIVER
The transceiver provides airborne clear and secure voice, tactical data, and satellite communications.
The transceiver is common to all terminals in the AFSATCOM family, terminals required for airborne command posts, tankers, and Navy TACAMO aircraft. Also serves as Line Of Sight (LOS) radio. An additional 1025 RT-1A and 433 RT-1Hs are used with external modems as LRUs in UHF AFSATCOM SIOP mission terminals. Milstar mods for these terminals will be funded by the AFSAT Terminal Upgrade. Non-SIOP (tactical) radios need to be modified for DAMA for use in SATCOM applications after FY96.
The transceiver is manufactured by Rockwell-Collins for the following platforms: C-20B, EC-135C, RC-135C, RC-135U, RC-135V, RC-135W, TC-135S, TC-135W.
