Little late for us unfortunately. I think any trips for cold war buffs to russia, ukraine, Belarus, kazakstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Georgia and so on will be too dangerous for western europens and north Americans though i hope i go and experience these historic sites one day
The problem with this report is that it WAS effective. It might not have been *efficient* but it did work. They were able to use it to detect rocket launches on multiple occasions. Its smaller precursor, Duga, was tested by pointing it at Baikonur. So the technology does work. It wasn't a "failure", technology just advanced so quickly that smaller and better radars were available not long after Duga-2 was built.
Interesting, the radar cross section of a missile would be very tiny in the amateur bands. I guess they overcame this problem by transmitting gargantuan power levels and using very sensitive receivers.
Another problem with this report is there are 2 structures still standing. This is the transmitter located northeast of chernobyl. The other is Duga 3 the receiver south of chernobyl.
@@williamstamper442 the transmitter is also DUGA 2. Transmitter and receiver counts as one unit Also are you sure, that this footage isn't the receiver at Chernobyl?

It's fascinating when you haven't experienced it. It all started with bolshevik revolution in Russia and genocide of russian people.. Then spread around Europe.. Raping, stealing, corruption.
West always stolen USSR,Russian and nazi technology,west used Jewish scientists who escaped Germany. VTOL,stealth flying wings,laser,vsat ect you name it.
I visited it a couple years ago, the scale of it walking underneath is amazing. The tour guide mentioned one of the reasons the whole project shut down was all 3 needed to be online together to triangle icbms. With Chernobyl messing up duga, the array was useless.
Regardless of it being a "flop" I always sit in awe looking at, watching and just hearing about Soviet technology and just how ambitious they where. Its an era of engineering marvels "flop" or not, its amazing. I just bought a Vostok watch because of the sheer grit that the design has and how tech from the 70's is able to hold up to todays standards.
Yes, it worked effectively and a brilliant marvel. This guy may be right that a modern cell phone has more processing power than old analog technology, but I can't detect if any balistic misile is launched on my cell phone
@@valuerc2664 If our cell phones had the correct programming while connected to the proper peripherals, they would be far more capable of tracking ICBM's than 1960's Soviet tech that did not work well to begin with.
Jaffa Orange Its over the horizon radar. Basically, it bounces radio waves off the atmosphere and if nuclear missiles are launched by the US it will be able to detect them based on the interference the cause to the waves.
This radar was not a "flop." It actually worked OK for that era, but it did use outdated technology, like vacuum tubes. Also, the radar required 10 million Watts to operate, and that is why it was built so close to the Chernobyl power plant.
@Sgt Soviet well What year was that back then? And isn't Duga used for radar that faced west of Russia and make woodpecker sounds? Impossible that would be somewhere else in Russia, maybe Siberia
Every ham radio op in the northern hemisphere knew about this thing. On the 20 meter band (14 MHz) we called it the russian woodpecker. By 1988 we knew it was an over the horizon radar from the USSR. It was not a secret once they turned it on.
@@fly3209 The bigger array sent out pulses. The smaller array received the returned signal. Or vice versa. The OTHR principle is sound and was in use since the early 1940s. Duga was able to push out the wave further due to ground propagation (unlikely?) or ionospheric propagation? And punching out some serious watts when powered up. It is said that at least one of the reactors at Chernobyl was built to power it. And when it all went wrong in 1986, Duga-2 was impossible and therefore scrapped.
@@fly3209 By beam steering high power shortwave signals and relying on propagation assistance from reflective layers in the Earth's atmosphere to both transmit and detect signals which are at such a distance the signal would not make it over the horizon to the target or back.

If you purchase a cheap USB SDR dongle, install a readily free SDR application and tune to certain bands in the HF Radio spectrum, you will see the type of characteristic radio signature these types of antenna arrays emit.
@@SoulArtSound Other nations use this same OTHR technique today and is widely available to listen to with a cheap SDR dongle and also freely available SDR software.
