FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: rotating antenna dome, made in form of a caisson and designed to be mounted on the fuselage behind the wing using pylons, has a central unit - a supporting cube consisting of top and bottom lining panels of the caisson, two side members and two supporting ribs. The main supporting member - octahedron - is placed in the supporting cube coaxial to a cowling. Four vertical faces of the octahedron, arranged in parallel to the walls of the side members and the ribs of the caisson, are fastened to vertical beams mounted on the side members and the supporting ribs of the caisson. The octahedron is bounded by top and bottom flanges which are supported by stiffening members located on each face and connected by outer shelves of the faces with the walls of the side members and supporting ribs by fittings. The inner shelves of the flanges have elements for fastening the lower flange to the bearing of the rotating mechanism. The fastening elements are located between the stiffening members.
