Wassermann-S long distance radar

Wassermann-S long distance radar

utb1942
This is an improved version of a variation of the German Wassermann-S (Schwer) radar, built by GEMA during WW2. It was used for early warning over distances of up to 300 km and several were used on the Dutch coast to monitor the incoming allied aircraft. The antenna of this version has much more detail like separate IFF, radar receiver and transmitter antennas and an improved crane. Also the size of the L480 bunker has been corrected. In 1943 the radar system was replaced by the Klein Heidelberg system with a different antenna system. Thanks to ben D. for the people and to Harpoon for the grille door. #antiaircraft #bunker #early_warning #german #L480 #long_distance #netherlands #radar #utb #utb1942 #wassermann #wassermanns #WK2 #WO2 #WW2 #WWII
