Chapter 290: Radar Technology
World War II was a period of great development of science and technology, and many technologies in later generations were developed in World War II, such as rockets, jet aircraft, and radar. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Radar is a kind of equipment that uses the reflection of electromagnetic waves to detect objects, and it is precisely because of radar that Britain can discover the location and batch of fighters of the Luftwaffe in advance when Germany bombs London, and then guide and intercept them.
Throughout World War II, Germany was advanced in many technical aspects, but it did not include radar, and Germany's radar technology in World War II could only be said to be sufficient.
Ciric, who came from later generations, of course, knew the huge advantages of radar, so he wanted to change all this, so that Germany had advanced radar equipment at the beginning of World War II, and maintained this advanced nature!
In the radar, the most important core component is the magnetron, and in the first trip to the island country, Ciric reached an intention to cooperate with the island country, introduced the magnetron technology of the island country, and then became the core equipment of the radar after its own transformation.
In fact, as early as 1904, Dr. Huelsmeye of Germany was the first to propose the principle and hypothetical structure of radar. It's a pity that his theory was out of the time of the time, so it didn't cause great social significance. The electronic technology of that era was still too backward to be built at all.
Dr. Hans.E. Hollmann, the "father of radar" in Germany, continued to develop the theory of radar and applied the results to practical production.
It can be said that Dr. Hollmann devoted his life to the study of radar, and when he was teaching at the University of Darmstadt, he already began to work on high-frequency electromagnetic waves with centimeter-level wavelengths.
Later, Dr. Has. Kard von Willisen, who was also interested in radio, joined Hollmann's research. They found an investor, Guenter Erbsloeh, and founded GEMA. Specializing in radar research.
And this company, a few years ago, received a lot of funding from the government, and their products can also be developed quickly.
Ciric has a lot of emphasis on radar, and it will be an advanced weapon that will change the whole era! Under his attention, Germany's radar is progressing rapidly, for example, when the German class was in service, it has been installed to detect surface ships, which is also an early research of GEMA.
After continuous development, now they have adopted the latest technology, using 50 cm radar waves, which can detect large and small ships within 15 kilometers, and more importantly, more accurately, the error in distance is within 50 meters.
In the process, H.E. Hollmann also registered an even better patent for a multi-cavity magnetron.
In these experiments, he also found that these radar beams can be concentrated to effectively detect aircraft at an altitude of 500 meters and a distance of 28 kilometers. This also led to the study of anti-aircraft radar.
And now, when they have already produced results, Ciric takes this very seriously and comes to inspect it himself.
After obtaining sufficient gold from Spain, Germany does not have to worry about any financial problems, and all aspects of technology can be developed in great strides, and now, GEMA is Germany, and it is also the world's best radar technology research!
Traveling with Ciric, there is also Goering, although Goering and Ciric have contradictions, but in terms of enhancing the military power of the Empire, the two are still the same, and now, this kind of equipment that can detect aircraft in the sky will of course greatly affect future air battles!
The car stopped next to a huge antenna, which is a circular antenna with a diameter of 7.4 meters! It looks incomparably huge, and the base of the antenna can be turned, and the huge thick cable is connected to a room not far behind the antenna, and in the distance, the sound of the power generation car is rumbling.
"This is the latest anti-aircraft radar that we have developed based on various experiences." Dr. Hollmann enthusiastically explained to the visiting Shrek and others.
"Our radar, called Wuerzburg-Riese, has further increased the transmission power of the magnetron to a detection range of 80 kilometers, and at the same time, the resolution has also been greatly improved."
"Horizon longitude accuracy is less than 0.2 deg. The altitude error is less than 0.1 deg, which is fully capable of giving early warning to enemy aircraft and at the same time guiding our aircraft. ā
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 codenamed Wuerzburg-Riese is one of the outstanding representatives, but it was already late in World War II.
And now, a few years in advance, this radar with advanced performance has been developed! The most critical magnetron is now also able to work stably.
After looking at the antenna first, the group entered the computer room, inside, there was a large picture tube, and at this time, there were sharp waves jumping inside.
"Now, there is a plane coming towards us, sixty kilometers away, judging by the speed of the other side, it will pass over us in eight minutes."
Goering looked at his watch, did not speak, he came outside again, with the sight of his pilot, looking at the sky.
Time passed little by little, when eight minutes later, a JU52 transport plane flew over Goering's head.
"If this thing is deployed, we will all be deprived of the joy of flying!" Goering couldn't help but say.
This kind of thing, which can accurately detect aircraft, what does that mean? Flying in the sky, there are no secrets! As the commander of the Air Force, Goering, of course, knew the great value of such a radar!
"We, the Air Force, will order a batch of these radars." Goering immediately stated that during the day, the pilot's visual vision, can reach sixty kilometers, but what about at night?
The first advantage of this radar is that it can guide aircraft to fight at night!
Dr. Hollmann was overjoyed, although there was continuous funding from the state, but the equipment of the army could explain the value of their development, and now, Goering immediately decided to equip it, which is the embodiment of their value!
"This radar, after passing the durability test, can be finalized as equipment." "At the same time, there are many aspects that need further development," said Ciric. ā
Now, of course, it is not enough to have a simple anti-air and anti-sea radar, which is useful in many ways!
