Gooseneck hoses for the defence sector

The army needs tailor-made equipment, often responding to very specific characteristics in order to adapt perfectly to all situations. That’s why ABEILLON designs and manufactures 3 types of flexible supports:

Flexibles pads for vehicles

These flexible bases have been designed to support antennas for tanks, military vehicles and civilians.

These flexible bases are specially designed to adapt perfectly to the structure of the machine. These bases are made of special materials selected for their strength and durability.

Flexible pads for portable stations

Flexible goosenecks are ideal for supporting radiocommunication antennas allowing them to remain in a given position. These flexible goosenecks are mainly used on portable radiocommunication stations that serve as relay information. These flexible, adjustable bases are ideal for supporting short antennas or antennas for portable racks manufactured by ABEILLON.

The specific design of the flexible bases for vehicles and flexible bases orientable allows them to withstand the various climatic, chemical or mechanical aggressions (tests carried out according to standard MIL military specifications or customer specifications defense).

These various models of flexible bases, orientable or not, can be equipped at each of their specific connection ends according to the customer’s request (metric thread, Anglo-Saxon, BNC type connector, TNC, N, …).

All orientable flexible goosenecks manufactured by Abeillon are able to support the different models of UHF and VHF antennas designed by our company. To learn more about the radio antennas for the army, do not hesitate to consult our page dedicated to antennas for the army.
