Abstract
Thermal barrier coated RF radomes and a method for making the same are provided. In an embodiment of the disclosure, there is provided a method for making a thermal barrier coated radio frequency (RF) radome. The method comprises providing a radio frequency (RF) radome. The method further comprises applying a thermal barrier coating having a dielectric constant less than about 2.0 onto a surface of the radome to form a thermal barrier coated RF radome. The thermal barrier coating reduces a structure temperature of the radome by greater than 300 degrees Fahrenheit to enhance thermo-mechanical properties and performance of the RF radome.
