RADAR CHRONOGRAPH, M36

Abstract

The Radar Chronograph Set, M36 is a continuous wave doppler radar transmitter-receiver system. Its function is the measurement of velocity of artillery projectiles ranging in size from 40 to 280 mm, and encompassing the velocity range from 250 to 6100 fps. The main objective was to develop an improved and updated version of T-7 Chronograph by reducing the size and weight, complexity of operation and maintenance, and susceptibility to failure under severe environmental conditions. This objective was accomplished. (Author)
