Capabilities and Features
MAGNA-I (NavGuard® 720) is the latest fully integrated, affordable GPS Anti-Jam solution from Mayflower Communications – the technology leader in small SWaP GPS Anti-Jam for over 30 years. GPS Anti-Jam systems are critical for military operations in todays GPS contested NAVWAR environments. MAGNA-I AJ system is a TRL 8 and MRL 8 and is proven in successful NAVWAR mission operations. NavGuard® 720 (MAGNA-I) was developed by Mayflower Communications under sponsorship by the US Army PEO Aviation PM Aviation Assured Airspace Access Systems (PM A3S) under the MAGNA Phase III program to support GPS protection requirements of the US Army severely SWaP-constrained Rotary Wing and UAS platforms. The NavGuard 720 is well suited for small ships, UAS’s, Rotary Wing, Fixed Wing, and Ground Combat Vehicles. NavGuard® 720 MAGNA-I leverages operationally proven MAGNA GPS Anti-Jam solutions which have been integrated by multiple US Military and Government Agency platforms.
The 7-Channel NavGuard 720® MAGNA-I is the smallest fully integrated GPS Anti-Jam System in the market. MAGNA-I is a fully connectorized 4.5” diameter CRPA with integrated AJ electronics that is FRPA footprint compatible. The MAGNA-I consistently out performs many larger antenna solutions. NavGuard® 720 MAGNA-I has been performance qualification tested and Environmental Tested and meets Government MAGNA Technical Requirement Document (TRD) specification requirements. The MAGNA-I is a TRL 8 and has been integrated on multiple US Government Platforms and flown in a NAVWAR Environment.
MAGNA-I AJ solution offers an affordable SWaP-C alternative over larger and more expensive existing anti-jam systems. This Anti-Jam system is C/A, SAASM and M-Code compatible. The MAGNA-I in its current form factor has been proven in Military NAVWAR Environments.
MAGNA-I is available now to support platform integration and qualification. Please contact us for additional information and pricing.
