The best airborne radio is a given but true independence is a choice

Information superiority is vital to mission effectiveness and survivability. Key mission success factors are reliability, security, flexibility and system capability in deployed communications solutions. SOVERON provides secure and reliable mission communications networks for all branches and command and control levels of the armed forces. The SOVERON AR airborne radio is a part of the SOVERON software defined radio family.

Features & benefits

For civil and military avionic standards

Since airspace worldwide is used largely for civil purposes, military aircraft must also meet civil standards for unrestricted passage through airspace. The R&S®AR5000 can be a primary ATC radio. It is the only software defined airborne radio on the market that also meets civil safety avionic standards, providing full independence for unrestricted joint civil-military operations.

Designed for ease of integration

An essential part of airborne radio development is the continual and intensive exchange of expertise with industrial partners to eliminate platform integration risk. Like no other radio, the R&S®AR5000 was designed for easy integration. The radio is qualified in line with MIL-STD-704F, MIL-STD-810F and MIL-STD-461F to minimize additional platform-specific qualifications.

Assured command and Control (C2) superiority

Rohde & Schwarz offers state-of-the-art wideband waveforms for information superiority. Applications range from pure voice to high-speed tactical data for all airborne platform scenarios. The waveforms permit reliable and secure communications in a fast-moving, harsh environment. Fast frequency hopping, advanced encryption technologies, simultaneous voice and data transmission and embedded mobile ad-hoc networking (MANET) capability are just a some of the superior technologies.

Custom national data link solutions

Based on the internationally accepted SCA standard, the strict separation between radio platform and waveform applications allows procurement authorities to fully modify parts the radio in line with national requirements. Developing an indigenous national waveform, including a crypto algorithm, gives authorities true independence.
