C-Band Miniature Radar Transponder: 238G

CPI - 238G

The ultra-miniature, solid-state, lightweight transponder is designed for use as a tracking radar enhancement device in airborne applications such as missiles, unmanned air vehicles or manned aircraft operating at instrumented ranges.

CPI radar transponders are traditionally used by the manufacturers of target drones, missiles and test range operators where a common standard is desired. They provide a safe environment for equipment development trials and in-service training exercises. CPI transponders provide a real-time solution that enhances any object’s radar signature.
