waveguide communication line and can be located in fuselage in pressurized area or
outside it in close proximity from an antenna. MFD is installed in specially allotted
place in crew cabin.
Classification of WNRS is based on differences of maximum range (D max ) of
energy (power) potential indicator (PI) of radar locator in detection mode of hydrometeorological targets. WNRS is divided into the following classes:
I
class—PI — 119 dB, D max —550 km, is intended for installation on supersonic,
long- and medium-range aircraft;
