  • Abstract
    The use of radar as a defensive warning signal and guide for antiaircraft fire as well as a control for offensive warfare was one of the chief advantages enjoyed by the Allies during World War II. In the postwar world, however, radar will have even more far-reaching effects as the most important element in the development of a completely safe navigation and traffic control system for both sea and air.
