The paper then discusses how radar was used in particular battles and how it ultimately won the war for the allies. History of the Radar Technology "Building 20
was completed in December 1943 to house part of the Radiation Laboratory (Rad Lab), the successful collaboration between scientists and the military that focused on improving the radar technology that
greatly contributed to the Allies victory in World War II. The Rad Lab designed approximately 50% of the radar used to shoot down enemy bombers and guide Allies planes during
the war" (Heywood, 1998; history.html). This lab was only one division of National Defense Research Committee (NDRC), for "in June 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt authorized Vannevar Bush to
