Dornier Do.P238V U-2 Radard "Berlin 2"

Night high-altitude interceptor bomber.

Modification of the end of 1946'go year, equipped with a new, powerful radar for that period.

The detection range allows long-term detection of enemy B-17 and B-29.
In connection with the fact that the bombers had a new armament, which does not allow a shot to destroy the bombers with the usual 30mm cannons, the installation of the 55mm BK-5.5A cannon began, which allowed firing from a kilometer or more, remaining inaccessible.
