NATO Supply Class 5985 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 59, which is dedicated to Electrical And Electronic Equipment Components.

NATO Supply Class 5985 specifically focuses on Antennas, Waveguides, And Related Equipment. This class includes various types of antennas and waveguides used in communication systems, radar systems, and other electronic equipment.

Antennas are devices used to transmit or receive electromagnetic waves, allowing for wireless communication. They come in different forms such as dipole antennas, parabolic antennas, and array antennas.

Waveguides, on the other hand, are hollow metallic tubes or channels used to guide and transmit electromagnetic waves at microwave frequencies. They are commonly used in high-frequency applications, such as radar systems and satellite communications.

Related equipment in this class may include connectors, mounts, brackets, and other accessories used in the installation and operation of antennas and waveguides.

The purpose of NATO Supply Class 5985 is to provide a standardized classification system for procurement and logistics purposes within NATO member countries. It helps ensure efficient management and coordination of the supply chain for antennas, waveguides, and related equipment in military and defense applications.
