Phone Number: 202-559-4690

Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
An STA is necessary to provide bi-directional connectivity between Northrop Grumman-owned communications equipment on the ground and onboard an aircraft. The experiment is designed to verify communication capabilities in the 30-88 and 225-400 MHz ranges.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  This communications system is being developed for our communication solution for the U.S. Army’s Future Vertical Lift aircraft. On-board these types of aircraft, the system is required to support waveforms such as SINCGARS in the 30-88 MHz range and HAVEQUICK in the 225-400 MHz range.
