Kolomannsberg AD EW radar

 military, nonresidential building

Kolomannsberg radar station is equipped with the RAT 31 DLR radar; an L(D)-Band longrange 3D air surveillance radar with a range of appx 300 nautical miles.

3 fixed and coupled radarstations are the key elements in the Austiran Goldhaube (Golden cap) early warning & airdefense system.
With their primary and secondary radars they can triangulate any aircraft position; heading and altitude (3 dimensional radarpicture).

This fixed system may be extended in crisis or exercise by using Mobile radarunits operating the:
- Selenia Mobile Radar Control System (MRCS) 403
- Thomson Ziel Zuweisungs Radar (Target Tracking Radar) and Tiefflieger Erfassungs Radar (Low Altitude Aquisition Radar)

All systems coupled this results in the complete Goldhaube system guaranteeing a far better radar coverage and alerting and intercepting on an almost no-notice basis!
