B17 IFF Equipment


Recommended Posts

I read that B17 bombers carried a "MKII Identify Friend Foe" equipment as standard in Late 42 (and onwards?). How did this work? What did fighters carry? Did British aircraft carry compatible IFF equipment?

I don't have much info about this but this might be used with ground radar stations. Crossing the channel in a big formation coming from France in 43 was not a funny business

Thankyou!

Edit: Looks like the IFF system I read about is the replacement to pipsqueak.
