AN/PRC-10

< AN

The AN/PRC-10 is an American VHF portable radio transceiver, introduced in 1951 as a replacement for the wartime SCR-300 set. The AN/PRC-8 and AN/PRC-9 sets are basically the same but cover lower frequency bands. It remained in service with the American military until the mid 1960s when it was replaced by the transistorized AN/PRC-25 set.

In accordance with the Joint Electronics Type Designation System (JETDS), the "AN/PRC-10" designation represents the 10th design of an Army-Navy electronic device for portable two-way communications radio. The JETDS system also now is used to name all Department of Defense electronic systems.
