| NOTAS: | "George W. Stimson has updated the classical text and reference on Airborne Radar to reflect the latest developments in the field. Retaining clear and colourful graphics with concise captions, an open layout, simple clear descriptions, "Blue Panels" to present details a reader can skip on a first reading, "sidenotes" to convey caveats and comments, and a wealth of real-world examples and photographs, the book is an ideal introduction to the subject for nonspecialists: engineers, technicians, pilots, and aerospace industry marketing, public relations, and customer support personnel. Any person with a high school grasp of algebra and a little trigonometry and physics will be able to understand and enjoy this intrinsically fascinating subject. The first 21 chapters, focusing on radar fundamentals are also applicable to ground and sea radar. The next 15 move into air-to-air and air-to-ground operation. Later chapters cover advanced concepts. All are ideal for training courses and self study." |
