MC-130H Combat Talon II X-Band Antenna Container


 
The X-Band Antenna Shipping and Storage Container (CNU-470/E) is a sealed, welded aluminum, controlled breathing, reusable container. The container is engineered for the physical and environmental protection of the X-Band Antenna during worldwide transportation and storage. The container consists of a base and a completely removable cover equipped with the special features listed below. The base is a one piece skid/double walled base extrusion with forklift openings, humidity indicator, pressure equalizing valve and desiccant port for easy replacement of desiccant (controls dehumidification). A silicone rubber gasket and quick release cam-over-center latches create a water/air-tight seal at the base-cover interface. Polyethylene foam (2 pcf) cushions in the base and cover provide shock and vibration protection for the aluminum cradle box that houses the item to 25 G's.
