From radar characterization to airborne measurement, RF SPIN antennas support R&D, testing, and qualification programs at leading aerospace and defense organizations.
In aerospace and defense, every measurement carries weight — a missed dB can mean a failed qualification or a delayed program. For two decades, RF SPIN has built broadband measurement antennas for engineers who can't afford to second-guess their data. Every antenna we ship is individually calibrated, fully documented, and engineered to perform under real-world conditions.
And other defense, aerospace, and research organizations all over the globe.
Antennas with custom radomes for outdoor deployment, vehicle integration, and field testing. Built for challenging environmental conditions — MIL-STD-810F qualified solution available (QRH400R).

Individually calibrated with electronic calibration files
Qualified for harsh-environment applications (QRH400R).
Manufacturing operates under an ISO 9001 quality management system.
Accredited laboratory calibration to CISPR 16-1-6 available (PLUS CERTIFIED tier). Each antenna individually calibrated in our anechoic chamber.
Each antenna ships with a unique QR code linking to the Antenna Portal — calibration data, datasheets, and documentation accessible at any time.
Every antenna designed, machined, calibrated, and tested in our Czech facility. Full quality control, no outsourcing, traceable supply chain.
Each antenna individually calibrated and documented. Manufacturer or accredited calibration data follows the antenna throughout its lifetime, accessible via QR code.
For specific frequency, mechanical, environmental, or interface requirements. 20+ years of design experience, in partnership with Czech Technical University in Prague.
From extended frequency ranges and custom radomes to special connectors and ruggedized mechanical builds, we develop custom antennas built precisely to your brief. Our engineering team has delivered custom designs for defense integrators, space programs, and aerospace OEMs.
