A device constructed as simple as possible shall be provided for simulating, in laboratory tests of radar seekers, the conditions of free space with a moving target emitting radar radiation. To this end, a radar anechoic chamber is formed as hollow body pivotable about the radar seeker and serving as ray trap. A radar transmitter is arranged in this hollow body. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A device for the simulation of radar targets within the framework of laboratory tests of the behaviour of radar seekers or of multimode seekers having a radar channel, (a) wherein, by a radar anechoic chamber, an environment for a radar seeker provided with a detector is achieved, which comes close to the conditions of free space with regard to the radar radiation measurable at the location of the detector, and (b) in which means emitting radar radiation are arranged, characterized in that (c) the anechoic chamber is formed by a hollow body pivotable about the radar seeker, (d) the hollow body has such a shape, that it acts as ray trap, (e) at least one radar transmitter is fixedly arranged in this hollow body.
2.
Device as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the hollow body is constructed of light weight materials.
3.
Device as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the hollow body is mounted in a gimbal suspension, the intersection of the axes of which is located in the gimbal center point of the gimbal suspended radar seeker.
4.
Device as set forth claim 1, characterized in that the hollow body is an elongated body of revolution, which has an opening at one end on the side of the seeker and carries the radar transmitter on a closed end surface opposite this opening.
5.
Device as set forth in claim 4, characterized in that the inner surface of the hollow body is provided with a plurality of projections inhibiting reflection.
6.
Device as set forth in claim 5, characterized in that the inner surface of the hollow body (a) at first is flared starting from the opening in a first section, (b) then is tapered in a second section communicating with the first section, and (c) has an elongated third section, which is flared at a small angle up to the closed end surface.
7.
Device as set forth in claim 6, characterized in that the envelope of the projections inhibiting reflection (a) in the first and the second section, extends at constant distance from the inner surface of the hollow body, (b) in a first partial section of the third section, is further tapered with a reduced cone angle as compared to the cone angle of the second section up to a narrowest cross section, and (c) in a second partial section of the third section, is flared with a small cone angle from the narrowest cross section towards the closed end surface
