This is the previously untold story of the secret war of radar and electronics conducted by RAF Bomber Command's 100 Group. Night after Night RAF crews went 'spoofing' and radar interception and countermeasures were used to confuse the enemy's intelligence systems thereby reducing the heavy losses by the main bomber force penetrating german air space. Containing many first-hand accounts of partipation these daring raids, 'Confounding the Reich' also explains the various radar detection and jamming techniques employed, together with the meaning of the often mysterious code names used, such as Serrate, Mandrel Jostle and Airborne Cigar. Fully illustrated throughout with many rare photographs, many published here for the first time, of air crews and the equipment, this is a valuable contribution to the history of the Second World War.
