NATO Supply Class 5841 is a classification for Radar Equipment, Airborne. It falls under NATO Supply Group 58, which is dedicated to Communication, Detection, and Coherent Radiation Equipment.

Radar Equipment, Airborne refers to the equipment used for detecting and tracking objects in the air using radio waves. This includes radar systems installed on aircraft or other airborne platforms.

The purpose of this equipment is to provide situational awareness, enhance navigation, and support various military operations. Airborne radar systems are crucial for military aircraft, as they enable detection of other aircraft, ground targets, and even weather conditions.

NATO Supply Class 5841 includes a wide range of radar equipment, such as airborne surveillance radars, weather radars, target acquisition radars, and ground mapping radars. These systems are designed to operate in the airborne environment, providing reliable and accurate information to the operators.

The equipment in this supply class is specifically designed and optimized for use in airborne platforms, taking into consideration factors such as size, weight, power requirements, and environmental conditions. They are built to withstand the challenges of operating in the air, including vibrations, temperature variations, and electromagnetic interference.

NATO Supply Group 58, Communication, Detection, and Coherent Radiation Equipment, encompasses a broader range of equipment related to communication, detection, and coherent radiation technologies. This includes not only airborne radar equipment but also other communication systems, detection devices, and coherent radiation equipment used in various military applications.

In summary, NATO Supply Class 5841 for Radar Equipment, Airborne, is a specific classification within NATO Supply Group 58 for Communication, Detection, and Coherent Radiation Equipment. It includes radar systems designed for use in airborne platforms, providing essential capabilities for military operations in the air.

FSC 5841 Radar Equipment, Airborne - Germany (DE)

Note-Excludes oscillator items which should be classified in FSC 5955 or 5963; fiber optic items which should be classified in Group 60; electronic modules as defined under Class 5963; and electrical cable, cord and wire assemblies, harnesses and sets, related to FSG 58 equipment (see FSC 5995). In Group 58, more than in any other group, it frequently happens that the same name is listed as an index entry in each of several classes. In addition, that name may also appear as an entry in groups other than 58. Each such entry refers to a distinctly different part or assembly, even though the different items have the same name. The listing of the same names in two or more classes indicates that, in one form, the part or assembly covered by the name is applicable to the equipment covered by one class, and in another form is applicable to the equipment covered by another class. For example, the item name CODER, AUDIO FREQUENCY is applicable to two distinctly different assemblies, one of which has an application in cryptologic equipment, covered by Class 5810, and the other in radar equipment covered by Class 5840. Consequently the name CODER, AUDIO FREQUENCY is an entry under each of the two classes. When an item identification bears a name which is indexed under more than one class of Group 58, or in Group 58 and in some other group, the item will be classified in the same class as its next higher assembly in the manner described in the Federal Logistics Information System (FLIS) Procedures Manual, DoD 4100.39-M. Also excluded from this group are data transmission and communications equipment such as terminals, sensors and other devices designed for use with a configuration of ADPE.
