Oboe was a British bomb aiming system developed to allow their aircraft to bomb targets accurately in any type of weather, day or night. Oboe coupled radar tracking with radio transponder technology. The guidance system used two well separated radar stations to track the aircraft. Each Oboe tracking station used radio ranging to define a circle, the radius of which was the distance from the station to the target, the third point in the triangulation. The two circles intersected at the target. Radar pulses from each station were picked up by a transponder mounted in the aircraft. The aircraft transponder transmitted the signals back to the stations, after a slight delay. By assessing the time it took for the signal to return the distance between the station and the aircraft could be determi

  • Oboe (Observer Bombing Over Enemy) war ein britisches Funknavigationssystem für Bomber im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Das System wurde ab Dezember 1942 in Betrieb genommen. (de)
  • Le oboe était un système de localisation des objectifs destiné au bombardement aérien sans visibilité et utilisé par les Britanniques au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il était fondé sur la technologie des transpondeurs radio. Ce système a été employé la première fois en décembre 1941 à peu près à l'époque où le radar H2S fit son apparition. (fr)
  • Oboe (akronim ang. Observer Bombing Over Enemy) – brytyjski system radionawigacji służący do dokładnego naprowadzania samolotów bombowych w czasie II wojny światowej. Opracowany został około 1942 roku jako uzupełnienie systemu nawigacyjnego Gee. System oparty był na dwóch radiolatarniach pracujące na częstotliwości 220 MHz połączonych kablem w celu synchronizacji. Dokładność wyznaczania pozycji była wysoka z promieniem błędu wynoszącym około 110 metrów przy w zasięgu 400 km. (pl)

  • L'Oboe, acronimo di Observer Bombing Over Enemy, designazione aziendale AMES Type 9000, era un sistema di radionavigazione utilizzato nel corso della seconda guerra mondiale, per guidare i velivoli della britannica Royal Air Force durante le missioni di bombardamento strategico sul territorio tedesco. Fu utilizzato per la prima volta il 31 dicembre 1942 durante il bombardamento di Dusseldorf. (it)
  • Oboe (Observer Bombing Over Enemy) was een Brits radargeleidesysteem voor bommenwerpers in de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Het systeem werd in december 1942 vrijwel gelijktijdig met het H2S-systeem ingevoerd. Het systeem was bedoeld om de RAF-bommenwerpers tijdens nachtvluchten of bij slecht zicht naar hun doel te leiden. Het systeem werkte met echo's die door het toestel zelf werden uitgezonden, waardoor het toestel voor de vijand op te sporen was. Het systeem werkte in samenwerking met twee grondstations, namelijk de CAT, die vaststelde of het toestel nog op koers vloog, en de MOUSE, die aangaf wanneer het toestel zich boven het doel begaf.
