030122 Like and subscribe. This is an archive, check the link in the end if you are owner. Full, unedited documentary on RADAR Applications from 1962. This 40 minute training film provides excellent background and technical description of the invention and evolution of RADAR technologies. From its earliest use in wartime, to cold war installations integrated with the giant SAGE computer systems, to onboard RADAR, naval and submarine use, it gives a great overview to the entire subject. Included are RADAR uses in rescue operations, space craft tracking and recovery and weather tracking. A great deal of technical equipment is shown in various applications. ~ We have improved video clarity for best viewing. A table of contents is provided below. Hope you enjoy this great vintage material.

Radomes protect antenna surfaces from weather and/or conceal antenna electronic equipment from public view for security purposes.)
