Aircraft antenna CNI8

UHFbladeomnidirectional

The CNI8 Series is an airborne, 8” blade, UHF, L-band, single port or internal diplexer, multifunction antenna. The CNI8 Series offers a rugged, high performance UHF/L-Band antenna system currently in use on the A-6, A-10, CP140, E3, F-15, F-16, F-18, P3, S3, and other aircraft. The system provides capability for simultaneous operation of UHF communications, IFF, TACAN and Data Link through a single antenna. The blade system provides dual band omnidirectional coverage. It is composed of a high strength fiberglass housing and an aluminum base casting to withstand the severe supersonic environment. Integral, as well as remote diplexer configurations are available. The antenna has been in constant use since 1971 with no known field failures or problems of any kind reflecting on its reliability.
