AN/TPS-77 & AN/FPS-117 radar stats in H5?

Featured Replies

I was looking into what air defence radar might be in operation in the UK and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_Integrated_Air_Defense_System#United_Kingdom suggests a combination of Lockheed-Martin AN/TPS-77 & AN/FPS-117 (which I understand are essentially the same, but the TPS-77 version is mobile) and a BaE Systems AR-327 in Cornwall.

I wondered if my copy of H4.1 had stats for those radars so went to look. The annex notes on page 1 of "Data Annexes 4.1 - Ships, Aircraft & Weapons" suggests there should be a section J2 for "Land-Based radars" but my book seems to jump from "J1-6 - Annex J1 Naval Radars" straight to "K-1 - Annex K - Fire Control Radars". Do they all do that or is mine missing something? My copy of the data annexes from High Tide does include an Annex J2 - Land-Based radars but only seems to generic entries and ones for USSR radars.

I'm wondering if H5 has the stats for these land-based air defence radars? I'm just thinking around ideas for possible scenarios at the moment.

\o/ books arrived today. Much quicker than I expected. Seems they shipped from a POD partner in the UK.
