Book Reviews of Introduction to Airborne Radar, Second Edition (Aerospace & Radar Systems)

Book Review: Excellent airborne radar reference
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an essential reference for radar engineers. It is very compete in covering many concepts (with good figures and clear language). Even radar experts will find some sections very useful. I pull it down with some regularity to fill in gaps in my experience.

The book has 43 chapters in 10 parts: Overview, Essential Background Information, Radar Fundamentals, Pulse Doppler Radar, The Problem of Ground Clutter, Air-to-Air Operation, High Resolution Ground Mapping, Radar in Electronic Warfare, Advanced Concepts, Representative Radar Systems.

Summary of Introduction to Airborne Radar, Second Edition (Aerospace & Radar Systems)

The completely rewritten and revised Second Edition updates a famous work originally published by the Hughes Aircraft Company. Much more than a simple introduction, the book is actually a history, reference, tech manual, and textbook rolled into one beautiful illustrated volume, packed with full color photos, drawings, tables and charts, plus knowledgeable, informative text.

Twelve new chapters cover all the sophisticated stealth radar techniques. Over 90% of the illustrations are in color as the book describes over a dozen airborne radar systems currently in service, from long-range surveillance to environmental monitoring. The first three chapters can be used as a stand-alone briefing on modern radar for readers who need a quick introduction.

Key Features:

- Brilliantly illustrated full-color photographs, graphs, and figures

- 12 new chapters completely update the content

- Excellent for both specialists and nonspecialists
