"Blazing Skies, From Ajax to Zeus"
by CW-4 Jack K. Emry (Ret)
This is a biography of a WWII "jar-head" U.S.Marine who later (saw the light and) joined the U.S.Army and the beginning of the Nike AJAX program, and stayed into the ZEUS phase. Frankly, "I couldn't put the book down" and read it straight through into the dawn.
Maverick Publications - 1990
Drawer 5007
Bend, OR 97708I got my copy from J.P. Moore,
there are also several listed in Advanced Book ExchangeJack Emry describes his Marine training in good detail - you get the feeling. He goes to the Pacific War and has adventures. Comes home and gets bumped around in civilian life, Border Patrol yet. Enlists into the Army and gets Nike technical training. Goes to a Seattle site, then later does technical, documentation, Operational Readiness Testing, evaluation of things - has tours including Germany and Kwajalein. Bumps into the good and bad of Army life.
The author has an amazing memory for names - the book is peppered with names of people involved with the Nike program. I think it is also a great sociological study of the military (or probably any large organization). This is not a techie book - this is a book about life.

"A History of Engineering and Science in the Bell System:
National Service in War and Peace (1925-1975)"
edited by M.D. Fagen, 1978, Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc.
ISBN 0-932764-00-2, Library of Congress # 75-31499.
Recommended by Colonel Stephen P. Moeller as
"One of the finest books written
about the technological and experimentation underpinnings of all
of the Nike systems ...".
He found a copy in a used book store near a college.
I (Ed Thelen) got a copy via an inter-library loan with in the county library system. This book is really a "must" for 1925-1975 radar (naval, anti-aircraft, anti-ballistic missile), acoustics (sonar), gun direct directing analog computers, communications (various forms of multiplexing - a number of phone connections on one wire) and a host of other developments.
Surprising to me was the large role the Bell system had played in the Nike system. There were indeed Western Electric stickers on most of the Nike equipment and the schematics had Western Electric logos (Western Electric was the "manufacturing arm" of the Bell System). But I had no idea while in the Army that Bell Labs had designed the Nike Fire Control System, nor that Bell labs started into radar in 1937 at the request of the Navy. Bell Labs did a great deal of the (British invented) magnetron development and production for the U.S. in World War II. Also during World War II Bell Labs played a major role in in radar, radar surveillance and tracking systems, and radar directed computers.
The historical sequence shows the evolution from the first U.S. production naval radars (being installed in naval vessels at Pearl Harbor at the time of the attack) through the M-9 anti-aircraft gun directing system of V-1 and mid WWII fame, through the M-33 gun directing system which supplied many of the components for the Nike missile fire control system, through the Nike Ajax and Nike Hercules programs, and into Nike Zeus.
I had heard that the Nike Ajax acquisition radar was the M-33 radar of the M-33 anti-aircraft gun directing system, but was surprised to see that the Nike operator's radar scopes and controls looked identical to the M-33 system also. The M-33 analog computer operational amplifiers "Direct Coupled" Amplifier" looked the same as the Nike. (From Doyle Piland dpiland@zianet.com "These amplifiers not only looked the same for the Nike and M-33 systems, there were the same. All the way down to the part/stock number.") The evolution/adaptation from system to system was amazing and enlightening to me.
It gave factual detail to many folk tales that I had heard about pre-magnetron radar transmitters. It is a wonderful (full of wonders) book giving the historical background to World War II activities, the complex interactions between governments (U.S. & British) and industry (Bell, G.E., etc.) and educational institutions (MIT, et. al.). In other words. an overview of the "military/industrial complex" that helped us win World War II. It gives a broad view of the research, development, preparation for user training, manufacturing, and maintenance of several important sequences of defense related systems.
Well written, easy to read, 757 pages including a good bibliography and index.

I have a book by Bill Gunston called "Rockets & Missiles" that is

From
Ben Buja
" I have some pages of an Historical Monograph
made by the US army Ordnanace Missile Command, Redstone Arsenal, AL from
1962 which chronicles the "Development, Production, and Deployment of
the Nike Ajax Guided Missile System 1945-1959.) I have about 10 pages
photocopied from this document, (200+ pages long) and all I wanted were
the sections concerning real estate issues, public opposition and
initial deployment. I looked at this while at the Historical Office of
the US Army in Downtown Washington, DC. It was interesting as it
contained all the information during the development of the system such
as information on what happened during test firings; Did it fly, did it
obey radio signals, if reached the target drone, etc., etc., etc. I also
visited the Army Corps of Engineers HQ in Alexandria, VA which provided
other documentation like some site layouts etc. "
"Introduction to Airborne Radar",
author, George W. Stimson,
publisher, Hughes Aircraft Company, El Segundo, CA
copyright, 1983, Library of Congress # 83-83041
(Ed's comment) An excellent non-juvenile book that leads the non-technical
interested reader into radar. I found it in some local libraries.
The beginning is simple and
topics carefully get more advanced. A great teaching book for
practical understanding and results! Later chapters give an
understanding of advances in radar mapping as used in the
Venus probes.
Update - Adrian Popa reports
We have a 2nd edition and a publisher for George Stimson's "Introduction to Airborne Radar" It has lots of new stuff including electronic warfare, Inverse SAR, active aperture phased array radar and the F-22.

An Illustrated Guide To The Techniques And Equipment
Of Electronic Warfare
by Doug Richardson
A book recommended by Aidan Fabius
via newsgroup sci.military.naval and Patrick Tufts,
recommends "excellent book on the subject called "An Illustrated Guide To The
Techniques And Equipment Of Electronic Warfare" by Doug Richardson (An ARCO
Military Book) which has tons of info on that kind of thing. My copy is
pretty dated (1985) but there's probably a newer version of it by now.
There's about 20 pages on different jamming techniques and a really good
introduction explaining how radar works and all the different types of
radar. The book has plenty of pictures and diagrams, and is really easy to
understand. I highly recommend it." Patrick Tufts then found an almost local
(for me) copy the book
via Advanced Book Exchange.
"Radar Technology", edited by Eli Brookner,
publisher, ARTECH HOUSE, Dedham Mass.
copyright, 1977,

(Ed's comment) Very Serious Engineering, but the first chapters
have lots of data and pictures of then
current military and civilian radars worldwide.

"Radar Electronic Counter-Countermeasures"
by Stephen L. Johnston,
published by Artech House, 670 Washington St., Dedham, MA 02026
copyright 1979
Standard Book Number 0-89006-79-7, Library of Congress 79-18873
A collection of papers covering the time span 1946 to 1978. Three types of papers: discussion, analysis, and hardware. Many PPI and A scope images of examples of various types of jamming and the results of using various methods of countering the types of jamming. Block diagrams, circuits, theory, mathematics, statistics, references to Soviet publications, ... . There is a 16 page "Master Electronic Warfare Glossary" that helps you understand some the specialized technical words.
Five hundred forty six pages of various highly technical authors trying to get as much information as possible into the few pages of each paper. An extensive bibliography. I would guess that it would take a summer for a technical person to get a reasonable overview of this book, bring your reading glasses and magnifier. Much more than most of us will ever want to know or be able to understand about this subject. Awe inspiring, just brousing the book brings a sense of wonder and humility.
I found a copy in the local library.
Glenn Petersen (c16439@lmpsil02.comm.mot.com) found
and reports "
Hardcover, 476 pages, first printed in September of 1971, it gives basic
to intermediate theory of operation of radar systems. There are many
references to the Nike system, some theory of operation and pictures of
Nike equipment and personnel (anybody recognize anyone?) from the Fort
Bliss Air Defense Center. While not Nike intensive (the majority of it
is of other systems), it gives a good background into modern radar of
the era.
I could not find it in any local library. Amazon reports "hard to find".

Ed,
The long list below represents a bibliography of Nike materials that are part of the OCLC world-wide library system. Since these materials are listed on that system, most should be available for interlibrary loan purposes. I think I've rummaged through the list and screened out all the duplicate entries and unrelated items. I thought the list might be helpful for you or anyone else doing Nike research...
