Source sentences:
text: In an airplane, the combination of a disk-shaped radome rotatably mounted on and exterior to the body of said airplane with its minor axis generally perpendicular to the direction of flight, said disk-shaped radome having a major solid segmental portion, greater than one half thereof, constructed of high strength metal and a minor portion of said radome, less than one half thereof, constructed of material substantially transparent to high frequency energy, a spindle fixed to the body of the airplane and projecting a substantial distance into the interior of the radome substantially in the center thereof, bearing means rotatably securing the radome to the fixed spindle within the radome, means for rotating the radome about an axis normal to the direction of flight and an antenna mounted in said radome for rotation therewith, said antenna located in said minor portion of said radome beyond said spindle and arranged to transmit and receive through said minor portion.
text: In an aircraft having a body comprising a fuselage, Wings and empennage the combination of, a disc shaped radome arranged at the exterior of the body to have its maximum diameter generally parallel to the direction of flight, the radome including an electromagnetic energy reflective metal major wall portion having a high strength to weight ratio and a second portion constructed of material substantially transparent to high frequency electromagnetic energy having a low strength to Weight ratio as compared with that of the major wallportion, an antenna fixed Within the radome and arranged to look through said second portion, means supporting the radome and antenna on the body for rotation as a unit about the central axis of the radome generally normal to the plane defined by the peripheral edge thereof, and means in the body for rotating the radome and antenna as a unit at a substantially constant rate to scan a full 360 degree sector of space.
text: In such arrangements, the radomes or at least substantial portions thereof, must be constructed of materials that are substantially transparent to the high frequency energy transmitted from the antenna and must be designed to permit free operation or movement of the antenna array within them.
