An RF-transparent radome ceramic engineered for high-velocity flight and the aerodynamic heating it brings.
A missile radome must stay RF-transparent and dimensionally controlled while aerodynamic heating drives its skin temperature up over the flight, then must not detune the seeker. Fixed-CTE radome ceramics expand by a set amount that may not hold boresight and electrical thickness across the actual thermal trajectory, and finished-blank lead times stretch development. ITAR-free European supply is a procurement constraint for European programs.
Strocera supplies the radome material as a ready-to-fire powder blend with thermal-expansion behaviour tuned to the radome's flight thermal profile, characterised over 100 to 800 °C, so the seeker stays on boresight. You specify the trajectory and RF requirements; the formulation is adjusted accordingly, a custom material service rather than a catalogue blank. The powder form lets you form geometry and close the development loop in weeks, and it ships ITAR-free inside the European defence cluster, outside US export-control friction.
