Radar in World War II greatly influenced many important aspects of the conflict. [1] This revolutionary new technology of radio-based detection and tracking was used by both the Allies and Axis powers in World War II , which had evolved independently in a number of nations during the mid 1930s.

German Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine Radar Equipment during World War II, relied on an increasingly diverse array of communications, IFF and RDF equipment for its function. Most of this equipment received the generic prefix FuG ( German : Funkgerät ), meaning "radio equipment".

This is a list of World War II electronic warfare equipment and code words and tactics derived directly from the use of electronic equipment. This list includes many examples of radar, radar jammers, and radar detectors, often used by night fighters; also beam-guidance systems and radio beacons.
The low-UHF band Würzburg radar was the primary ground-based tracking radar for the Wehrmacht's Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine (German Navy) during World War II. Initial development took place before the war and the apparatus entered service in 1940. Eventually, over 4,000 Würzburgs of various models were produced.

Aichi E13A1b "Jake" Mark 11B: like model 11A, added Air-Surface radar and other night conversion with radar (E13A1b-S). Kawanishi H6K2,4 and 5 "Mavis" Marks 11,22 and 23: More powerful engines, for ultra long range missions, long range sea radio equipment and air-surface finding radar added.
The radar was a development of FuMG 80 Freya and was operated during World War II for long range detection. It was developed under the direction of Theodor Schultes , beginning in 1942. Wasserman was based on largely unchanged Freya electronics, but used an entirely new antenna array in order to improve range, height-finding and bearing precision.
