Mystery Field Equipment

Hi all

Does anyone know what this is? I think it is either Russian or German. It comes from the album of an airman from KG3.

Thank you

Tim O.

Re: Mystery Field Equipment

Acoustic locator on trial in France: 1930s. This remarkable machine is an acoustic locator based on hexagons. Each of the four assemblies carries 36 small hexagonal horns, arranged in six groups of six. Presumably this arrangement was intended to increase the gain or directionality of the instrument. Once again there are three operators.

Thank you both. Mystery resolved. I guess it is therefore in France!

Best wishes
