OPERATIONAL EVALUATION OF RADIO REPEATER SET AN/TLQ-2 ( )

Abstract

The purpose of the tests was to evaluate the operational characteristics of Radio Repeater Set AN/TLQ-2 as a VT-fuze jammer. Facility of operation, range and effectiveness, susceptibility and vulnerability to enemy action, and operational requirements were evaluated with the purpose of aiding in the development of doctrine for the tactical employment of the equipment. It was found that the AN/TLQ-2, if miniaturized and ruggedized, would be a suitable device for the protection of a small area of perhaps 2,000 by 1,600 yards for instantaneous NVT- or CVT-shell concentrations of no more than six shells of high- or low-angle trajectories perpendicular to the jammer antenna main lobe. The ratio of maximum range to width of the area protected is 1.36 : 1. The system is susceptible to power-sharing; its effectiveness could be reduced by injecting a signal of a frequency near that of the fuzes to be jammed. (Author)
