Fu 5 was widely used 10-watt VHF tank radio set (full
identification Fu 5 SE 10 U) consisting of Ukw.E.e receiver
and 10 W.S.c transmitter. After 1938 each of German tanks (Pz.III,
Pz.IV, etc.) was equipped with Fu 5 radio set and
additional
Ukw.E.e receiver which was identified as Fu 2 (Fu 2 EU). Later
in the war years, Ukw.E.e came to replace more bulky
Ukw.E.c1 receivers in 20-watt tank radio sets Fu 6 and Fu 13. For more information see
Ukw.E.c1 in our Showcase No.4R.
