VHF model help needed old school

[HDAV]

Can anyone tell me the make and model of the vhf where all the controls are on he mic and the radio is just a black box? Need one that the critical parts are easy to remove to improve security and restrict access other option is an external antenna for a handheld which might be easier. A fixed set would have more power antenna height either way would be around 2.5m high enough to take advantage of the greater power?

Also what’s a decent cheap fixed antenna likely to cost? Used would be better there is no budget for this.....

Thanks here is a simrad one too, as budget is minimal was hoping there be some older model basic units that might be replaced with new dsc ais models and could be found cheap.

They weren't known for their reliability iirc
