How defense customers are re-thinking solid state

Why THINK Solid State?

TWT

MOBILITY CHALLENGES:

TWT amplifiers can be delicate and unreliable in mobile applications, hindering their performance on the go.

EXTENDED REPAIR TIMES:

A failed TWT amplifier can lead to agonizing repair lead times of up to 12 months, disrupting critical operations.

INDUSTRY DECLINE:

With a dwindling industry and a shortage of skilled personnel, the maintenance of TWT amplifiers becomes a daunting challenge.

CATASTROPHIC FAILURE:

A tube failure in TWT amplifiers means complete breakdown, leaving you without amplification when you need it most.

HIGH REPAIR COSTS:

TWT amplifier repair can be an expensive affair, with the tube constituting a significant portion of the overall cost.

Solid State

ENHANCED MOBILITY:

Our solid-state alternatives are built for versatility, ensuring reliable performance even in dynamic, mobile scenarios.

SWIFT MAINTENANCE:

Experience minimal downtime with our solid-state technology that allows for quick and efficient maintenance, measured in hours or days, not months.

FUTURE-PROOF DESIGN:

Unlike TWT amplifiers, our solid-state alternatives utilize a multiple module design, allowing for soft failures. Even if some modules malfunction, the amplifier remains operational at a reduced power level.

COST-EFFICIENT OWNERSHIP:

Reduce the total cost of ownership significantly with our solid-state alternatives. Maintenance is simplified, and customers can replace defective modules themselves, saving both time  and money.
