Abstract

935,719. Radar. HAYES CORPORATION. May 23, 1961 [Feb. 27, 1961], No. 18595/61. Class 40 (7). [Also in Group XXXIII] In a towed aerial target provided with means (not shown) for discharging streams of infrared light to facilitate radar tracking or " chaff " to render tracking more difficult, the discharing means is controlled by a switch 12 operated by a radio receiver 11. The nose of the body 10 is provided with a cone 14 of radio wave permeable material formed with a nose block 18 through which passes a tubular radio antenna 17 secured at its rear end to a bulkhead 16 to provide a structural connection for a tow rope 22 which passes through the antenna.
