The invention provides a damage resistant antenna using a super-elastic flexible metallic material to form antenna radiating structures with a high damage threshold. The invention accounts for the electro-magnetic properties of the super-elastic flexible metallic material in the design of the shape and dimensions needed to form antenna radiating structures with consistent performance after repeated deploy, stow, and transport cycling of the antenna.
