For many years, Rohde & Schwarz has been a supplier of airborne transceivers to Airbus Helicopters, which deploys them on many of its platforms.

The software-defined radios from the Munich-based secure communications specialist, which meet the highest security standards, allow networking and ensure interoperability between all branches of the armed forces and allied countries. Nearly 8,000 software-defined radios from the R&S M3AR family of airborne transceivers are in use worldwide on more than 70 different airborne platforms.

The latest generation of Rohde & Schwarz R&S SDAR airborne radios, dedicated to avionics communication systems, are equipped with high speed secure communications capabilities. It aims to simplify integration and help reduce system congestion and aircraft weight.
