The CAR-915A is a miniature state-of-the-art Airborne Command
FM Receiver. Small size (7.0 cubic inches) and light weight
(approx. 7 ounces) is consistent with the requirements of today's
military programs. The CAR is a single conversion superheterodyne
type design set to operate on one UHF frequency by crystal
control. The receiver is capable of demodulating FM RF signals
with modulation rates up to 50 kHz providing a post detection
baseband output signal for external decoders. The CAR-915A
shares the RF section of the highly successful FTR-915 Range
Safety Receiver/Decoder which has been used or qualified on
such programs as HARM, HARPOON, ITALD, SLAM(ER), ERINT, and
TSSAM. |
