Development of low-altitude air defense systems

A development history is presented for CW radars applicable to low altitude antiaircraft defenses in the 1950s, together with a development status evaluation of current systems, which are frequently of pulsed Doppler type, and of next-generation radars aimed at 'stealth' aircraft and cruis...

Zusammenfassung:A development history is presented for CW radars applicable to low altitude antiaircraft defenses in the 1950s, together with a development status evaluation of current systems, which are frequently of pulsed Doppler type, and of next-generation radars aimed at 'stealth' aircraft and cruise missiles, which may again be of CW type. Attention is given to the detection radars, illuminators, and radar-guided missiles developed for the Lark, Sparrow, and Hawk low-altitude air defense systems. (O.C.)
