Communications & Power Industries (CPI) – HOOK3® Combat Survival Radio

The new HOOK3 Combat Survival Radio (CSR) is the only, complete search and rescue system. It provides direct, line-of-sight and encrypted two-way data communications that help search and rescue radios quickly locate and rescue downed pilots and isolated personnel. The radio sends encrypted global positioning information, user identification and situation reports to provide rescue teams and aircraft operating in hazardous conditions with quick and accurate location information. The new HOOK3 radio is significantly smaller, lighter and has better power efficiency than previous CSAR radios, allowing a crew member to carry a single radio as opposed to multiple pieces of equipment. In addition the radio supports multiple Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and has an auto-activation feature when G-Force or salt water is detected.
