TWT
Missile TWTs for Active Seekers Features that influence the design include: Minimal size and weight; Narrow-to-moderate bandwidths;. Off-to-fully-operational turn-on times of one second or less; High efficiency; High reliability after long inactive storage periods. Normally, these TWTs are of the periodic-permanent-magnet (PPM) focused helix variety. They normally utilize unique cathode-heater designs to provide the very fast warm-up required. They typically have multiple stage depressed collectors with conduction cooling.
