Re: Horten 229: What is real, what is exaggeration?

What struck me when I saw the NG document film on the Horten plane was the fact that they IIRC tested the "replica" against CH radar which was odd because even in 1940 the job to detect low-lewel a/c was that of the CHL radars not CH radars and during 1943 British built even better low-level detection network using 10 cm CHEL (Chain Home Extra Low) radars, RAF called them Type 14 but they were in fact Naval Type 277s.
