A quick tour of Luftwaffe avionics in the valve era
Просмотров 4 тыс.Год назад
In this video, we show and explain over 30 of the most significant advances in German aviation electronics - or avionics during the valve era in under an hour! From the first steps of airborne radiotelegraphy in 1917 to beam navigation, onboard radar and sophisticated tactical VHF vox radio communication in the last days of WW2. We have previously uploaded a longer and more detailed version of ...
Luftwaffe BA16 portable field antenna
Просмотров 846Год назад
A brief look at the B16 portable field antenna used on airfields across occupied Europe by the Luftwaffe during WWII. The B16 was used with the FuG16 ground-to-aircraft radio communications and direction finding (DF) system. As this video is short, we are pleased to present the English and German language versions back to back. See the index below for details. English presentation 00:12 The B16...
Battle of the Beams - Wotan I, Knickebein, Wotan II and the X-Clock
Просмотров 2,8 тыс.Год назад
England 1940 - Battle of the Beams. We continue our look at the equipment involved from a German perspective. During World War II, Germany developed a radio navigation system called Knickebein (German for "crooked leg") to guide bombers to their targets. The system used two intersecting radio beams that the bomber pilot would fly along to accurately locate the target. The beams were transmitted...
Battle of the Beams - A demonstration of the Y-Device (Y-Geräte) single beam Wotan II
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.Год назад
The Y-Geräte or Y-device system, was a single-beam electronic distance measuring system used by the Luftwaffe in World War II to aid aircraft navigation. In a previous video, we showed you the FuG16 ZY and touched on its essential role in Luftwaffe fighter group navigation. But we only covered the method of operation of the electronic distance ranging system in broad terms. In this video, we wi...

We take a close look at a fully restored and operational Bombenzeilanlage or Bomb Target System known as the BZA or Bomb Zeil Automat (automatic bomb line, in English) and the STUVI 5B optical sight. We also look at the BZA's synchro (Selsyn) control system. (In a hurry? See the index below and jump straight to the detail that interests you) The BZA was an analogue computer system designed to p...

We examine the Peil G IV radio direction finding system - as well as explaining its operation, we demonstrate a fully functioning restored example. Developed by Telefunken on the eve of WWII, the Peil G IV receives signals from non-directional radio beacons (NDB). As the name suggests, a Non-Directional radio Beacon does not include directional information. The German radio beacons of the 1940s...
