Target allocation radar TPS-1E

It was also used by German army (Heer) air defence reconnaissance platoons up until the early 1990s.

Target data were transmitted by telephone or radio to anti-aircraft artillery batteries.

In the radar equipped batteries with the Fire control radar Mark VII, the Parallax computer Meta converted the data to local coordinates.

In the remaining heavy antiaircraft radar batteries, data were used in manual targeting.

In the middle of 1963 the ZZR was used together with the new Air Defence Operations Center 63 for the same task.
