AN/APQ-7

Eagle radar under a B-29.
Eagle radar under a B-29.

Created by Maury Markowitz (talk). Self-nominated at 22:54, 3 March 2016 (UTC).

  • Symbol confirmed.svg New enough (created 3 March 2016), long enough (10,996 characters "readable prose size"). Not quite fully referenced; needs a reference on the first paragraph. Hook referenced to Radar, p. 29 but this does not mention the argument between Bowen and Alvarez. ALT hook is fine though, verified against reference. Image on Commons with appropriate license. QPQ done. Good to go with ALT hook. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:07, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

Added the ref, but perhaps punch up the hook too? I'm trying to figure out how to say "bomb every house in Berlin" - or maybe that's how. Maury Markowitz (talk) 22:47, 4 March 2016 (UTC)

  • ALT2:... that Luis Alvarez initially called the APQ-7 radar the "EHIB", referring to its planned ability to bomb "Every House in Berlin"?
    • The point is that the radar is not doing the bombing. Stick with the ALT1 hook. Hawkeye7 (talk) 21:21, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
