trip, radar was discovered in britian in the 1930's & helped defeat the luftwaffe during the battle of britain 1940

The British first theorized it, but the German Heinrich Hertz (after whom the "hertz" is named) was the first to actually detect radio waves' ability to go through some objects and bounce off others.

now i understand that radar was theorized around the globe,

Several inventors, scientists, and engineers contributed to the development of radar. The first to use radio waves to detect "the presence of distant metallic objects" was Christian Hülsmeyer, who in 1904 demonstrated the feasibility of detecting the presence of a ship in dense fog, but not its distance.[2][3] He received Reichspatent Nr. 165546[4] for his pre-radar device in April 1904, and later patent 169154[5] for a related amendment for ranging. He also received a patent [6] in England for his telemobiloscope on September 22, 1904.[2][7]

Nikola Tesla, in August 1917, first established principles regarding frequency and power level for the first primitive radar units.[8] He stated, "[...] by their [standing electromagnetic waves] use we may produce at will, from a sending station, an electrical effect in any particular region of the globe; [with which] we may determine the relative position or course of a moving object, such as a vessel at sea, the distance traversed by the same, or its speed."

Before the Second World War, developments by the Americans (Dr. Robert M. Page tested the first monopulse radar in 1934),[9] the Germans, the French (French Patent n° 788795 in 1934)[10][11] and mainly the British who were the first to fully exploit it as a defence against aircraft attack (British Patent GB593017 by Robert Watson-Watt in 1935)[11][12][13] led to the first real radars. Hungarian Zoltán Bay produced a working model by 1936 at the Tungsram laboratory in the same vein.

In 1934, Émile Girardeau, working with the first French radar systems, stated he was building radar systems "conceived according to the principles stated by Tesla". [1]

The war precipitated research to find better resolution, more portability and more features for the new defence technology. Post-war years have seen the use of radar in fields as diverse as air traffic control, weather monitoring, astrometry and road speed control.

When World War II came, Bell Labs invented or improved numerous military systems, such as the two-way radio, proximity fuses, semiconductor devices, radar, sonar, computers, the ?bazooka,? and the first encrypted communications systems.

now i cant seem to find to much more, ......no doubt Britain's industry was strained, i believe from time to time Churchill was making personal phone calls begging for supplies......
