The AN/VRC-111 20 Watt Vehicle Adapter Amplifier (VAA) is a COTS/NDI, electrical and mechanical fixture combining the functionality of the battle-proven AN/PRC-148 Multiband Inter/Intra Team Radio (all MBITR and JEM configurations) and Vehicle Adapter into a system that offers an alternative to existing SINCGARS vehicular installations. The AN/VRC-111 20 Watt VAA consists of two AN/PRC-148 radios, two Vehicle Adapters, and an electrical/mechanical interface tray that facilitates direct installation into military vehicles outfitted with SINCGARS Installation Kits (IKs) utilizing Mounting Base MT-6352. The 20 Watt VAA, when installed in combination with a SINCGARS IK, enables power amplified (20 Watt per Vehicle Adapter), co-site filtered, SINCGARS performance as well as operation with the SINCGARS IKs audio devices and vehicular intercom systems such as the VIC-3. Rapid, cable-free radio dismount in less than 2 seconds is enabled with single push-button action. Capability beyond basic SINCGARS functionality is available through replacement of the standard antenna provided in the SINCGARS IK with a readily available COTS, 30-512 MHz broadband antenna. The VAA is rugged, constructed to withstand harsh weather conditions and ballistic shock. FEATURES:

• Contiguous 30-512 MHz coverage
• 20 W RF Output (50 W version also available)
• Installs onto existing MT-6352 mounting tray
• Powered through existing SINCGARS mounting tray
• No additional RF or power cable installation required
• Compatible with existing SINCGARS vehicle antennas (provided separately)
• Supports and maintains all functionality of all configurations of the AN/PRC-148 Radio, including MBITR and JTRS Enhanced MBITR (JEM)
• Full configuration: consists of two AN/PRC-148 radios, two Vehicle Adapters, and Interface Tray (also available without AN/PRC-148 radios)

The CVA provides an extended range for the most advanced handheld radio in operation. Having a low profile weighing 16 pounds with the radio installed, the CVA can be easily integrated into air, land, and sea-based platforms. The CVA chassis provides interfaces for power sources, antennas, intercoms, and data devices. The front panel of the radio provides full function operations. The internal battery charger recharges the radioÕs Lithium-Ion battery. Users can dismount the radio from the CVA within two seconds Ð cable-free, fully charged, and immediately operational. ¥ Contiguous 30-512 MHz coverage ¥ 50 Watts RF Output 30-88 MHz ¥ 20 Watts RF Output 89-512 MHz ¥ Integrated harmonic filters ¥ Programmable co-site filtering ¥ Low profile for space-constrained installation ¥ Environmentally rugged Ð meets MIL-STD-810 ¥ Full function radio operations from the front panel ¥ Cable-free radio dismount capability in less than 2 seconds

Integrating two AN/PRC-148 or PRC6809 handheld radios, it significantly increases the performance range of VHF/UHF radio net operations when extended radio linkage is required or where obstacles are present that normally preclude line-of-sight communications. It is capable of supporting both voice and data, secure and clear operations. Repeater mode will retransmit cryptographic signals, but will not decrypt signals. Base station mode supports encrypting/decrypting signals. The commonality of components and the proven MA7134 core Vehicle Adapter Amplifier platform enable increased range performance. FEATURES:

• Contiguous 30-512 MHz coverage*
• 50W 30-87.975 MHz
• 20W 88-512 MHz
• Repeater mode and Base Station mode
• Rugged transport case
• Bi-directional operation for Simplex Net Linking
• Removable control heads for full function remote operations
• Selectable AC and DC power input
• Supports all configurations of the AN/PRC-148 (MBITR and JTRS Enhanced MBITR, JEM) and PRC6809

* Additional frequency spacing and/or antenna spacing may be required for use above 88 MHz

Providing 20 Watts of RF power amplification across the full 30-512 MHz frequency band, the Man Portable System opens up a broad range of secure and anti-jamming voice and data applications. The rucksack that houses the system is reconfigurable into three modes: backpack, shoulder strap, and handle strap. In addition to the system components, the Man Portable System has the capacity to store additional batteries, antennas, and other accessories. On-the-Move Portable Solution for the warfighter. FEATURES:

• Contiguous 30-512 MHz coverage
• 20 W RF output
• Single or dual battery configurations
• Environmentally rugged
• Reconfigurable manpack
• Supports and maintains all functionality of all configurations of the PRC6809, AN/PRC-148 Radio, including MBITR and JTRS Enhanced MBITR (JEM)
