The LP-215-470 is a high-gain, military-grade UHF Aviation Band Log Periodic Dipole Antenna engineered for precision directional communication across the 215–470 MHz spectrum. Delivering a potent 10 dBi gain in a compact 1.05-meter frame, this antenna is the definitive solution for Air Traffic Control (ATC) sites, ground-to-air tactical links, and UHF satellite monitoring. Its non-loaded, 6063T6 aluminum architecture ensures maximum radiation efficiency and extreme mechanical survivability, making it a primary asset for both strategic fixed-site and rapid-deployment mobile missions.
Design: Aviation Precision & Tactical Mastery
The LP-215-470 is optimized for the critical UHF aviation spectrum used by military aircraft, SATCOM links, and Air Traffic Control.
- Elite 10 dBi Gain: By utilizing a full-sized, non-loaded array design, the antenna achieves exceptional gain and a focused 65-degree horizontal beamwidth. This allows for extreme precision in signal targeting and significantly increased range for ground-to-air intercepts.
- Rear-Mount Master Stability: The mounting bracket is permanently welded at the back end of the dual booms. This "rear-mount" design ensures the antenna can be attached to a standard 52mm (2-inch) mast without the mast physically interfering with the radiation pattern or gain.
- Compact & Rapid Logistics: With an overall length of 1.05 meters and a shipping length of less than 4 feet, this antenna is highly portable. Elements are removable and segmented, allowing for full assembly by a single technician in less than 5 minutes.
Construction: Combat-Tier Hardening
Constructed from 6063T6 architectural anodized aluminum alloy, the LP-215-470 is built for a long service life in active combat zones.
- MIL-STD-810G Certified: Rigorously tested for extreme temperature, shock, vibration, humidity, and salt fog. It is specifically engineered to survive monsoon, desert, or coastal deployments.
- Marine-Grade Durability: All fasteners are made of Type 316 marine-grade stainless steel. The entire array is protected by an epoxy-based Olive Green powder coating for total corrosion resistance in saline air.
- Integrated Safety: Operates at D.C. ground, providing a low-resistance discharge path for lightning and suppressing atmospheric static to ensure an ultra-quiet noise floor for sensitive surveillance.
Technical Features

- High-Efficiency 10 dBi Gain: Focused directional precision for long-range aeronautical intercepts.
- Rapid 5-Minute Assembly: Removable, segmented elements for streamlined tactical logistics.
- Rear-End Mounting Agility: Prevents pattern distortion and permits quick polarization changes.
- All-Weather Resilience: Wind rating of 200 Km/Hr with anti-corrosion epoxy coating.
Integration Guide: Dominating the UHF Air Band
1. Ground-to-Air Signal Isolation
In the signal-dense UHF aviation band, tracking specific aircraft or satellite links requires a surgical directional focus.
- The Precision Advantage: The focused 65-degree beamwidth of the LP-215-470 acts as a directional "spotlight." This allows an operator to isolate a specific aerial target while physically "nulling out" ground-based interference from the sides and rear.
2. Tactical Jamming (EW) Strategy
At 250 Watts, the LP-215-470 acts as a powerful directional floodlight. Its 10 dBi gain acts as an RF magnifying glass, concentrating energy into a focused cone, exponentially increasing your Effective Radiated Power (ERP) compared to an omnidirectional antenna.
3. Polarization Agility
Most aviation systems use vertical polarization, but reflections off the ground or shifting aircraft orientations can rotate the signal. The LP-215-470’s rear-mount bracket allows for rapid switching between Horizontal and Vertical polarization to match the incoming wave and maintain a stable link.
Design Features: The LP-215-470 high gain UHF air band log periodic dipole antenna use 6063T6 ultra corrosion resistant architectural anodized aluminum alloy and designed to provide wideband directional transmission/reception of radio signals from 215-470 MHz bands for ATC sites for ground-to-ground and ground-to-air communication without having the requirement of multiple antennas. The complete log periodic antenna is supplied with epoxy based powder coating finish to protect it further from severe environmental conditions. The extra spacers are used between the support booms to improve mechanical durability of log periodic antenna. The specially designed mounting arrangement results in fast installation. The LP antenna can be assembled in less than 5 minutes. This log periodic dipole antenna system is particular suitable for transmission, reception, monitoring, scanning and jamming applications due to its broad band design feature, and small size. This log periodic antenna provides strong performance over the entire 215-470 MHz UHF aviation band. Log periodic antenna does not use loading technique to reduce the overall size of array. The shipping length of antenna is less than 4 feet making it highly suitable for mobile and tactical applications.
