Chapter 290： Radar technology

World War II was a period of great technological development. Many technologies in later generations were developed during World War II, such as rockets, jet aircraft, and radar.

Radar is a kind of equipment that uses the reflection of electromagnetic waves to detect objects. It is precisely because of the radar that the United Kingdom was able to detect the location and batch of incoming fighters from the Luftwaffe in advance when Germany bombed London, and then guide the interception.

Throughout World War II, Germany was advanced in many technical aspects, but radar was not included. In World War II, Germany's radar technology was only sufficient.

Cyrenk, who came from later generations, certainly knew the huge advantages of radar. Therefore, Cyrenk wanted to change all of this so that Germany had advanced radar equipment at the beginning of World War II, and this advancement has been maintained!

In the radar, the most important core component is the magnetron. During the first trip to the island country, Cyric reached a cooperation agreement with the island country, introduced the island country’s magnetron technology, and then transformed it by itself. , Has become the core equipment of radar.

In fact, as early as 1904, Dr. Huelsmeye of Germany first proposed the principle and imaginary structure of radar. Unfortunately, his theory was beyond the time of the time, so it did not cause great social significance. The electronic technology of that era, still It's too backward to be made at all.

And Dr. Hans. E. Hollmann, the "Father of Radar" in Germany, continued and developed the theory of radar and applied the results to actual production.

It can be said that Dr. Hollmann has been devoted to the research of radar all his life. When he was teaching at Darmstadt University, he had already begun to study high-frequency electromagnetic waves with centimeter-level wavelengths.

After that, Dr. Has.Kardvon Willisen, who was also very interested in radio, joined the research of Hollmann. They found an investor Guenter Erbsloeh and established GEMA company. Specializing in radar research.

And this company received strong government funding a few years ago, and their products can also be developed quickly.

Cyrek attaches great importance to radar, which will be an advanced weapon that will change the entire era! Under his attention, the German radar is making rapid progress. For example, when the German class is in service, it has already installed a radar for detecting surface ships. This is also the early research of GEMA.

After continuous development, now they have adopted the latest technology, using 50 cm radar waves, they can already detect ships of sizes within 15 kilometers, and more importantly, more accurate, with an error within 50 meters.

In the process, H.E.Hollmann also registered a patent for a more outstanding multi-cavity magnetron.

In these experiments, he also found that after these radar beams are concentrated, they can effectively detect aircraft within a distance of 28 kilometers at an altitude of 500 meters. From this, he also started research on air radar.

And now, when they had already produced results, Cyric took this seriously and came to inspect it himself.

After obtaining sufficient gold from Spain, Germany does not have to worry about any funding issues. All aspects of technology can develop in strides. Now, GEMA is Germany, and it is also the world's best radar technology research!

And Cyric was accompanied by Goring. Although Goring and Cyric had conflicts, they still had the same position in enhancing the military power of the empire. Now, this kind of aircraft can detect the sky. The equipment, of course, will greatly affect the future air combat!

The car stopped next to a huge antenna, which was a loop antenna with a diameter of 7.4 meters! It looks extremely huge, and the base of the antenna is rotatable. The huge thick cable is connected to a room not far behind the antenna. In the distance, the sound of the generator car is rumbling.

"This is the latest air-to-air radar that we have learned from various experiences and developed." Dr. Hollmann enthusiastically explained to Cyric and others who were visiting.

"Our radar, called Wuerzburg-Riese, has further increased the transmission power of the magnetron, reaching a detection range of 80 kilometers, and at the same time, the resolution has also been greatly improved."

"The accuracy of the horizon and longitude is less than 0.2deg. The altitude error is less than 0.1deg. It can fully warn the enemy aircraft and guide our aircraft at the same time."

Speaking of World War II, many people know about the battle over London, and the British radar seems to be majestic. In fact, Germany also has the same radar. This radar code-named Wuerzburg-Riese is an outstanding representative of it. It's just that it was already late in World War II.

Now, a few years in advance, this advanced radar has been developed! The most critical magnetron can now work stably.

After reading the antenna, a group of people entered the computer room. Inside, there was a large picture tube. At this time, sharp waves were jumping inside.

"Now, there is a plane flying towards us, a distance of 60 kilometers, judging by the other's speed, it will pass over us in eight minutes."

Goering looked at his watch and didn't speak, he went outside again and looked at the sky with his pilot's eyesight.

Time passed by little by little, when eight minutes later, a JU52 transport plane flew over Goering's head.

"If this thing is deployed we will be deprived of the fun of flying!" Goering couldn't help but say.

This kind of thing can accurately detect airplanes. What does that mean? There is no secret to flying in the sky! As the commander of the Air Force, Goering certainly knew the great value of this kind of radar!

"Our air force will order a batch of this kind of radar." Goring immediately stated his position. During the day, the pilot's vision can reach 60 kilometers, but what about the night?

The first advantage of this kind of radar is that it can guide aircraft in night battles!

Dr. Hollmann was overjoyed. Although there are constant funding from the state, the equipment of the army can explain their development value. Now, Goering immediately decided to equip them, which is the embodiment of their value!

"This radar, after passing the durability test, can be finalized and equipped." Cyric said: "At the same time, we have many aspects that need further development."

Now, simply having a simple air-to-air and sea-to-sea radar is of course not enough. Radar is useful in many ways!
