Imperfect scanning of the report with misalignments and shades but complete and fully readable both in text and illustrations, with a faint diagonal watermark in the foreground on the pages. From the Introduction: “In this Final Report each of the Division 14 projects is discussed. (..) The purpose of this report is to present enough of the administrative detail, technical advances, production data and operational use so that the separate contracts and the individual projects undertaken may be seen as parts of the whole development and may be followed, though briefly, from start to finish. References are given to more detailed technical reports wherever possible.” Profusely illustrated by b/w pictures, diagrams and tables. There are most interesting pictures and data of apparatus and radar installation which had not been published elsewhere. A very scarce publication, rarely found for sale. This report reviews the massive effort on the development of Radar, LORAN navigation system and associated components undertaken at the MIT Radiation Laboratory and related Organisations and Contractors during WW2. Produced by the Division 14 (RADAR) of the National Defence Research Committee (NDRC) it covers a wide range of Radar components, subsystems and techniques such as antennas, magnetrons, klystrons, indicators, switches, waveguides, LORAN system, fire control systems etc. with technical data, cost information, current project status, delivered quantities, etc. Even with its imperfect scanning process and its defects, this ebook is a must for any WW2 Radar historian or enthusiast as it offers a wealth of information not readily available from other sources on the technical development of Radar in those critical times.
