[Avionics Today 09-09-2014] Rohde & Schwarz has announced that Moog has selected the R&S EDS300 DME/pulse analyzer as a standard test solution for research and development, manufacturing and field deployment of their MM-7000 series navigation aids. The Moog MM-7000 is a technologically advanced full service TACAN and DME Beacon-Transponder being sold into the civil and military aircraft navigation market.

Moog’s MM-7000 platform represents the fourth generation DME & TACAN System and is designed to maximize performance and reliability, according to Rohde & Schwarz, by featuring an integrated design for fixed base, shipboard, mobile and man-portable applications with a common set of modules.
