RIAS
Radar A Impulsion et Antenna Synthetiques
An extraordinary concept is the French RIAS (Radar a Impulsion et Antenne Synthetique), set up by
ONERA and built by Thomson-CSF/Airsys. Fig. 2 shows a picture of the antenna system. Note the two circular arrays, sparsely populated. The array elements are mounted on the white vertical masts.
This radar operates in the HF/VHF band (50 MHz). The diameter of the outer annulus is approximately 500 m. [2-3]

fire hydrants
8. Protection contre l'incendie
L'eau est le meilleur agent extincteur du fait que l'ammoniac anhydre est très soluble dans l'eau. Il est facile de maîtriser la propagation d'une fuite de gaz ammoniac au moyen d'eau pulvérisée.
Des extincteurs d'incendie portatifs doivent être disponibles pour l'extinction des feux de moteurs électriques.
Pour le stockage en réservoirs de plus de 9 m3 (2000 gallons imp.) de capacité, il faut prévoir au moins un robinet d'incendie armé avec tuyau de 6 cm (2 1/2 po).

8. Fire Protection
Water is the best extinguishing medium because anhydrous ammonia is highly soluble in water. The spread of escaping gas can be readily controlled by water spray.
Portable fire extinguishers must be available for extinguishing fires in electrical motors.
For bulk storage exceeding 9 m3 (2000 imp. gal), at least one fire hydrant fitted with a 6 cm (2 1/2") hose must be provided.
