detected more than 200 German bombers and gave information about them to guide fighters and targeting anti-aircraft artillery.
In 1942, Samuel P. Rabinovich is deputy chief designer of the radar station CPA-2, and since 1945 - chief designer of the radar CPA-4 ("Ray"). For the first time in domestic practice, the station CPA-4 provided three modes: circular scanning, manual antenna
control and automatic target tracking the angular coordinates. The first mode is used for target detection and monitoring of the traffic condition on the indicator, the second—for the detection of targets in specific sector before going to the auto maintenance and for coarse positioning, the third—to accurately determine the azimuth and elevation

Since 1956 Samuel P. Rabinovich is chief designer of the radar sighting of interceptor

In the 1970s was the chief designer of the radar ST-68 (5N59) - moving the three coordinates of the station to detect and track low-altitude targets in active and passive noise in the presence of strong reflections from the ground and in adverse weather
conditions.
