Summary Technical Report of Division 14, NDRC. Volume 2. Military Airborne Radar Systems (MARS)
Abstract
This book on military applications of airborne radar systems is presented by members of the Airborne Division of the Radiation Laboratory with the hope that it will prove interesting and stimulating to those who take up our work as we disband. Our point of view in writing about radar systems is quite different from that adopted in the Radiation Laboratory Technical Series. There the latter series discusses technical design in detail and is intended to lay bare the scientific framework of radar, this volume treats the subjects from the overall operational point of view. If one compares the Technical Series to reports on medical laboratory research it would be appropriate to classify this present volume as a clinical study of the 'patient as a whole'. Throughout this presentation we emphasize the tactical requirements, the military problem, the reaction of the operators and, generally speaking, all those diverse human elements that only experience uncovers.
