It was placed into service in late 1942, and by 1944 it had also been adapted for use on surfaced submarines. With some 1,000 sets eventually being built, the Type 13 was by far the most used air- and surface-search radar of the Imperial Navy. The Type 14 was a shipboard system designed for long-range, air-search applications.
Air/Surface-search radar: Frequency: ... 90–180 m (98–197 yd) Power: 220 kW: SC was an American-made air and surface-search radar used during World War II by the ...
SK was a very high frequency search set for large ships. It furnished range and bearing of surface vessels and aircraft, and it could be used for control of interception. The set had both "A" and PPI scopes, provisions for operating with remote PPIs and for IFF connections, and built-in BL and BI antenn

The AN/APS-4, originally known as ASH (air-surface, model H) is an early military air-to-air and air-to-surface radar used by American and British warplanes during World War II. APS-4 operated in the X band at 3 cm, compared to the 10 cm S band used by most radars of the era. This allowed ...
Radar, Air to Surface Vessel, Mark II, or ASV Mk. II for short, was an airborne sea-surface search radar developed by the UK's Air Ministry immediately prior to the start of World War II . It was the first aircraft-mounted radar of any sort to be used operationally.
Seetakt – a shipborne radar developed in the 1930s and used by Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine, later improved into Freya air search radar. Serrate – British radar detection and homing device, used by night fighters to track down German night fighters with early UHF-band versions of Lichtenstein.
SJ radar was a type of S band (10-cm) radar set used on American submarines [3] during the Second World War. [4] The widespread use of the SJ radar, combined with the very low use of radar in the Imperial Japanese Navy , gave great operational flexibility to the United States Navy 's submarine campaign in the Pacific Ocean .
It was the U.S. Army's primary long-distance radar throughout World War II and was deployed around the world. It is also known as the Pearl Harbor Radar , since it was an SCR-270 set that detected the incoming raid about 45 minutes before the 7 December 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor commenced.
