Re: Did the Soviets ever succeed in jamming the “X-Gerat“ beam
Very many thanks Oquig for that information. Do you have any information on subsequent use of X-Geraet against Moscow?
Also, does anyone know when the Russians first used their version of 'Window' |

Re: Did the Soviets ever succeed in jamming the “X-Gerat“ beam
The exact date I don't know.
Have the following information: "The bombers the Long-range Aircraft (ADD), starting from August 1943 in areas of expected fighters and anti-aircraft artillery along the route threw wads of paper metallized strips of length 25-30 cm for jamming radar detection of air targets, radar vectoring fighter aircraft and stations aiming gun anti-aircraft artillery. The moment you enter the aircraft in the detection zone of the radar was determined using radar detectors type SOL-3/SOL-3A. Packs reflectors were thrown out manually (through the hatch of the cabin air gunner) with a time interval of about 10 seconds. In each regiment for jamming stood out for 2-3 plane. Simultaneously with the creation of interference was carried out maneuver the aircraft on course, altitude and speed. The initiators and organizers of the military application of these passive jamming were the staff officers ADD - Aleksander Pavlovich Chernyshov and Aleksander Vasilyevich Delnov" In June 1943 already took the famous RAID on Hamburg when the mass was used "Window" - the Russians must have known about it... Maybe knew about before. Last edited by kirche; 17th September 2015 at 17:23. |

To Oquaig
I wonder, what specifically interested you in German air raids on Moscow in 1941? There were in fact 2 quite strong attack and later pleny very small raids, up to the end of 1941? Almost nothing special? mw

Actually I have to correct myself here. The X and Y Gerat systems were NOT used in the attacks on Moscow. They were removed. The transmitting systems (The Rivers) remained in France. At best they used the Knickebein system. regards oquaig |
