AN/USM-719A Multi-Function Test Set

Purpose-Built Military IFF Testing for Flight Line and Shipboard Operations.

The AN/USM-719A is the next-generation replacement for the AN/USM-719, providing updated hardware, enhanced software, and expanded operational capability while eliminating legacy Mode 4 components and previous Over-the-Air testing restrictions.

Designed specifically for military transponder, interrogator, and shipboard IFF applications, the AN/USM-719A delivers comprehensive Mode 5, ADS-B, TACAN, and surveillance testing in a rugged, portable military platform.

Purpose-Built Configuration
Optimized for military IFF applications, the AN/USM-719A focuses on interrogation, surveillance, and TACAN testing while maintaining compatibility with current military cryptographic equipment and modern avionics systems.

The AN/USM-719A features a large NVG-compatible color display, intuitive soft-key operation, built-in KIV-78 powered bay, and support for both Direct Connect and Over-the-Air testing using the TAP-OMNI Antenna Coupler.

Future Expansion
The AN/USM-719A can be factory upgraded to the full AN/USM-708A configuration, providing an easy migration path as operational requirements expand.
