RF Blade Antennas for UAV & UAS Platforms

Compact, lightweight blade antennas for commercial and defense UAV/UAS manufacturers. Compare L-band, S-band and dual S/C-band models for telemetry, command-and-control and compatible RF communication links.

Final antenna selection should consider frequency, ground plane, mounting, installed radiation pattern, environmental requirements and aircraft configuration.

Who We Serve

Focused on UAV and UAS manufacturers.

The market includes specialized unmanned-aircraft manufacturers developing platforms for commercial missions and defense applications—not only traditional large aerospace and defense primes.

Commercial UAV/UAS manufacturers

Platforms for inspection, mapping, public safety, logistics, agriculture, research and other commercial missions requiring compatible RF links.

Defense UAV/UAS manufacturers

Unmanned-aircraft platforms for ISR, tactical operations and other defense missions. Program-specific environmental and qualification requirements must be confirmed.

Designed Around UAV Integration

Put RF performance into a low-SWaP package.

Blade antennas provide a streamlined external antenna option where mass, drag, mounting area and dependable coverage matter to the aircraft-level design.

01 / LOW SWaP

Limit payload and drag impact

Published model weights range from 0.43 to 1.25 ounces, with compact two-hole and four-hole mounting configurations.

02 / COVERAGE

Support aircraft RF links

Published omnidirectional azimuth patterns support telemetry and compatible communications, subject to the installed ground plane and airframe.

03 / INTEGRATION

Select around the platform

SMA female interfaces, multiple frequency ranges and mounting choices give UAV designers practical starting points for installation review.

UAV & UAS Applications

One antenna family. Multiple unmanned-aircraft roles.

Suitability depends on the radio, link budget and installed configuration. These are application areas for engineering evaluation—not statements of platform approval.

Telemetry & command links

Evaluate L-band, S-band or dual-band models for compatible command, control and vehicle-data links.

ISR payload connectivity

Support compatible RF links used to move sensor or mission data between the aircraft and ground system.

BVLOS & long-endurance platforms

Review antenna placement, ground plane, airframe shadowing and installed pattern when link continuity is critical.

VTOL & SWaP-sensitive UAS

Compare low-mass blade configurations where payload, mounting space and aerodynamic profile are tightly constrained.

Application Assistance

Select the antenna as part of the UAV—not in isolation.

HASCO can help compare the published models and identify what must be confirmed before committing to an aircraft installation.

Discuss Your Application

Include these requirements with your inquiry:

  • Operating frequencies, bandwidth and RF power
  • UAV type, airframe material and mission profile
  • Available ground plane and antenna location
  • Mounting footprint, height and weight limits
  • Required radiation pattern and link-performance targets
  • Environmental and qualification requirements
  • Quantity, prototype timing and production schedule

Let's Talk UAV Requirements

Find the right blade antenna for your unmanned aircraft.

Start with a frequency band, a published model or the integration problem you are working to solve. HASCO will confirm current specifications, availability and next steps.
