ITEM NAME: RADAR SET GROUP
TYPE:
AN/GPA-27, AN/GPA-27A, AN/GPA-57, AN/GPA-57A
AN/GPA-58, AN/GPA-58A
at 50 mi
Mounting: In arctic installations the first floor of
Antenna Tower AN/199/ FPS-3 or Antenna Tower
Velocity Response Shaping Cancellation
AB-199A/FPS-3 is used to house the electronic
Ratio: 30 db at 3.3 or 5.0 rpm of the antenna
equipment and is referred to as the radar control
shelter. For temperate installations a new radar
Antenna Gain (one way, 1300 mc, nose of beam):
control shelter is required: 25 feet 10 inches by 48
approx 35 db
feet 4 inches, inside plan dimensions, by 10 feet
clear height. A room of this size houses on active
Modulator Duty Cycle: 0.00288
and one standby channel.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS:
Related Equipment: Radar Sets AN/FPS-3, AN/FPS-
Siting: Determined by location of existing basic
3A, and AN/MPS-7 (fixed version)
radar.
