U.S. Navy Radar Systems Survey- Second Edition
Abstract
This survey is a revision and expansion of similar material covered in NRL Report 3544. It now covers over 300 models of Navy radar equipment. Not only those systems presently installed but also many proposed systems now under consideration and others under development are included in the survey. Surface, subsurface, airborne , amphibious, mobile , landbased, and beacon equipments are included. Appendix A shows a classification of electronic equipment which was used in two previous surveys issued by this Laboratory. Admittedly, the classification of a number of equipments under certain fields is controversial, but this listing was prepared principally as a means of organizing electronics into compartments of manageable size , and of permitting like systems to be grouped together. Using this classification, this report on radar systems includes 10 sections: Shipboard Search Radars, Landbased Search Radars, Airborne Search and Weapon Control Radars, Shipboard Weapon Control Radars, Landbased Control Radars, Indicators, Tar get Designation, Altimeters, Trainers, Beacons and Traffic Control.
