Abstract :
The paper is an account of the work of the Ground Radar Division of TRE following the development of the Chain Home system (CH). It is concerned first with improving air defences against night bombers and low flying aircraft and then, as the war swung in the favour of the British, with radar support for offensive action by the RAF and later by the Allied Armies landing in Europe. It includes a short discussion of airborne interception radar (AI).
