Royal Thai Air Force pilots train with Rohde & Schwarz communications

The new training aircraft for the Royal Thai Air Force will be flying with Rohde & Schwarz R&S M3AR software defined radios.

Rohde & Schwarz was awarded a contract to deliver R&S M3AR software defined, multiband-capable airborne radios for the Royal Thai Air Force’s (RTAF) new Textron Aviation T-6C Texan II training aircraft, to be called the T-6TH within the RTAF.

“We have a long history of working with the RTAF, having committed ourselves to delivering secure communication solutions that meet national requirements,” Stefan Pleyer, Vice President Application Segment Avionics, Rohde & Schwarz, explains. “Here, local content and involvement of local industry are key. With our local partner, we bring commonality and fit for the RTAF’s secure communications. We know our customers and support them as a long-term, reliable partner. RTAF knows, we keep our promises.”

The R&S M3AR multiband, multimode, multirole radios are the solution of choice for the reliable transmission of mission-critical information, whether for jet or propeller aircraft, helicopters or unmanned aerial vehicles.
