Dowding System

Dowding System


Hendon, United Kingdom (GB)
The Dowding system was the world's first wide-area ground-controlled interception network, controlling the airspace across the UK from northern Scotland to the southern coast of England. The system was built by the Royal Air Force just before the start of World War II, and proved decisive in the Battle of Britain.
