    Aircraft detection before radar - video and photo

    Aircraft detection before radar; essentially Acoustic mirrors. By the 1930s, incoming aircraft were already too fast to detect with this type of system in time to engage them.

    Radar came on the scene just before WWII. Although it made acoustic mirror detection useless, radar pioneers were able to make use of the existing networks of interconnected listening stations.
