German Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine Radar Equipment during World War II, relied on an increasingly diverse array of communications, IFF and RDF equipment for its function. Most of this equipment received the generic prefix FuG (German: Funkgerät), meaning "radio equipment". During the war, Germany renumbered their radars.
Würzburg radar. The low- UHF band Würzburg radar was the primary ground-based tracking radar for the Wehrmacht's Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine (German Navy) during World War II. Initial development took place before the war and the apparatus entered service in 1940. Eventually, over 4,000 Würzburgs of various models were produced.
Radar in World War II greatly influenced many important aspects of the conflict. [1] This revolutionary new technology of radio-based detection and tracking was used by both the Allies and Axis powers in World War II, which had evolved independently in a number of nations during the mid 1930s. [2] At the outbreak of war in September 1939, both ...
FuG 224 Berlin A. FuG 224 Berlin A was a German airborne radar of World War II. It used rotating antennae and a PPI ( Plan Position Indicator) display to allow its use for ground mapping. Although only a handful of sets were constructed, they saw service on the Fw 200 Condor .
Display device of FuG 218 Neptun. Neptun (Neptune) was the code name of a series of low-to-mid-VHF band airborne intercept radar devices developed by Germany in World War II and used as active targeting devices in several types of aircraft. They were usually combined with a "backwards warning device", indicated by the addition of the letters "V ...
This is a list of World War II electronic warfare equipment and code words and tactics derived directly from the use of electronic equipment. This list includes many examples of radar, radar jammers, and radar detectors, often used by night fighters; also beam-guidance systems and radio beacons. Many of the British developments came from the ...
An airport surveillance radar display. A radar display is an electronic device that presents radar data to the operator. The radar system transmits pulses or continuous waves of electromagnetic radiation, a small portion of which backscatter off targets (intended or otherwise) and return to the radar system. The receiver converts all received ...
