SDR-OMNI/MIL Avionics Test Set
The SDR-OMNI/MIL combines the proven capabilities of the commercial SDR-OMNI with expanded military avionics testing in a rugged MIL-SPEC portable platform.
Supporting communications, navigation, TACAN, transponder, ADS-B, DME, ELT, GPS, and ATC Modes 1 & 2, the SDR-OMNI/MIL is designed for military flight line, depot maintenance, government agencies, and defense contractors. It serves as a modern replacement for legacy Tel-Instrument T-47 Series, IFR-4000, and IFR-6015 avionics test sets.

Complete All-in-One Military Test Capability
The SDR-OMNI/MIL combines the capabilities of multiple traditional avionics test instruments into one compact system. Depending on configuration, it supports military Modes 1 and 2, civil ATC transponder modes, ADS-B, TCAS, TACAN, DME, VOR, ILS, communications, emergency beacon, audio, and RF cable testing.
Its combination of hardware and software provides broad RF test capability across approximately 200 kHz to 1.5 GHz while reducing the number of separate test sets military technicians must transport, maintain, calibrate, train on, and support.
Designed for Military Modernization Programs
The SDR-OMNI/MIL provides a practical modernization path for organizations replacing aging IFR-series equipment. Its consolidated architecture reduces dependence on obsolete test systems while delivering modern workflow improvements such as automated testing, touchscreen operation, remote control, electronic reporting, and field-upgradeable software.
The platform is suited for U.S. Department of Defense, NATO, allied military, government, aircraft manufacturing, depot, and field maintenance operations.
