Overview

The Kratos 13.5 Meter Earth Station Antenna gives you high-performance in  C-  or Ku-band geostationary satellite applications. The shaped  Cassegrain reflector provides superior gain and sidelobe performance, meeting stringent FCC and international requirements. Precision stretch-formed and interchangeable aluminum panels are attached to a  central structural steel hub with rigid,  interchangeable structural trusses.  The panels are coated with a  solar-diffusive white coating system that provides years of environmental protection while minimizing thermal expansion effects. The reflector back structure and  subreflector spars are designed to exacting rigidity requirements under wind and gravity loads.  The hub provides a  protective enclosure for sensitive electronics.
