The purpose of this radar was to detect Allied bombers during night raids over German territory. Its use in advanced and innovative designs like the jet-powered Me 262 fighter or the Arado Ar 234 bomber was a response to increasingly effective British night bombing tactics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eMaster AM-32-040\u003c\/strong\u003e set contains a complete set of precisely turned antennas made from high-grade brass, providing exceptional durability and a realistic appearance to the miniature radar.
