    Description

    The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Air Force, is seeking to procure a new RF Compact Range Signal Generator to replace the existing Dielectric Resonator Oscillator used as an RF source for the Compact Radome Range. The new signal generator is expected to enhance the performance of radome testing by improving power stability, linearity, and repeatability, while also enabling calibration of the RF signal source. This procurement is critical for ensuring accurate and reliable testing of radome systems, which are essential for various defense applications. Interested vendors can reach out to Tiwana Burdex at tiwana.burdex@us.af.mil or call 405-630-9599 for further details regarding specifications and submission requirements.
