V 174

Let us help all SES with one of his childhood problems (A joke SES)
Here we have a german drawning drawning
V 174 german.jpg
i only have measured one (the one at Hirsthals)
hirsthals fyr v 174.jpg
as we can see it s different from the german plan
However in my childhood (in 1999) i didn t measure the tower (I can t sleep of it .... That s why i wanna return to Danemark )
i only have this (rudimantary an probably wrong plan
toren 01 plan 111.jpg
Do any one has other drawnings ??? even someone might have measured the tower (or could go and do it )

i didnt see this plan in any of Rudi Rolf his books
this plan is really a laugh Patrick
see the entrance defence room with these thin walls etc
I dont think this plan is from the hand of Rudi Rolf
See his plans (old typologie p 425) (new typolgie p 405) bunkers in danemark (in cooperation with hans sakkers p 63)
none of them resembles at this oddity wonder though where this came from

Hi all,
Thank you very much, please note I said a published plan, I do know the German one. The one Partick posted looks like a jpg file which has been stretched, but it underscores my point, thrust your own or Dirk's measurements only :milwink:
Attached a drawing from Ørnbjerg by Jens Andersen. A version with a low tower. I don't think the high towers have ever been measured.
Attached is also my catalog of V 174 in Denmark, one additional was found in Norway a few years back. That makes a total of 11 in The AW :milwink:

Yes I think it is DAWA, and it seems to be based on the old RR drawing, certainly not on a field survey or measurements.

The radar at Løkken Süd was a FuMO 3 with enlarged antenna.
