Becker Avionics offers since 1970 the best in SAR technology and has delivered more than 30 000
beacons.

The new Becker´s MR510/2 is a Return Link Service Location Protocol (RLSLP) enabled and military-grade performance PLB with advanced features including a multi-constellation GNSS receiver (GPS/GLONASS/
GALILEO). The MR510/2 has a capability to receive a Return Link Message (RLM) provided by Galileo SAR Service.

Thanks to Galileo SAR service, the MR510/2 can receive and indicate COSPAS-SARSAT acknowledgement that your beacon has been accurately localised. The MR510/2 is the most advanced COSPAS-SARSAT certified handheld PLB available today. It is a rugged, multipurpose survival radio designed for civil and military aircrews, mariners and ground personnel.
