MAGR (R-2512A/U& R-2514A/U)

The MAGR was developed in 1990. The MAGR is less expensive (2/3 cost of the 3A), smaller (1/3 the size/weight of the 3A), more reliable, and field reprogrammable. This receiver has the same number of channels as the 3A (5). An NDI procurement approach took advantage of a commercially-developed product (Rockwell-Collins 3M receiver) and advancing microelectronics technology.
