For Rapid Deployment
Tactical Rear and Base Uses
NVIS and Inverted
Vee
The best camouflage tactical
support masts
Barker & Williamson's tactical mast
systems, together with our broadband antennas, give rear and base units the HF communications capability
needed in today's environment. Multiple configurations are
available for both NVIS and long range use. All come in complete
kits including the poles, pins, camouflage carry bags, hammers, guy lines, top
mounted halyard pulleys, etc.
Mast poles are made in 4 foot sections.
They are rapidly field assembled with an inner joiner, and pinned together. The
pins are captivated to the poles with lanyards so they won't get lost. A
locator pin is hammered into the ground to stabilize the bottom of the
assembly. A guy ring is placed on top, and lines run down to ground stakes.
The preassembled guy lines have easy to use tensioners and snap hooks.
The material utilized for the pole sections is
a composite known as FRP - fiberglass reinforced plastic. Unlike cheap
"fishing pole" material it is extremely
lightweight, strong, and rigid. The color is throughout the material - no
chipping paint. Also, shock hazards are eliminated.
Other features include bottom locating pins turned from aircraft
aluminum and ground stakes made from thermoplastic, to avoid rust.
All guys and lines utilize polyester, which won't stretch, rot, or
degrade in UV.
As usual, B&W brings you
the best!
