ARC-840 Airborne Protected Communication System

The ARC-840 is a state-of-the-art UHF radio set which provides air-to-air, air-to-ground and ground-to-ground voice and data communications.

Tactical communications are becoming increasingly important targets to electronic attack in the modern battlefield.

In response to this growing challenge, IAI has developed ARC-840, a communication system capable of defeating a broad range of electronic jammers, by utilizing frequency hopping techniques. The frequency hopping features incorporated in ARC-840 provide the inherent capability of transmitting and receiving protected signals in hostile environments.


The radio consists of three main units:

  • Transceiver RT-1115
  • Control box CB-5245
  • Optional external power
