The AN/APS-2, originally known as ASG (air-surface, model G), was a surface search radar developed by Philco originally for use in US Coast Guard blimps to detect German submarines. It proved better than several similar models then being built, and was ordered by the RAF Coastal Command where it was known as ASV Mark V. It was used primarily on British Liberator GR bombers, where they were instrumental in closing the Mid-Atlantic Gap and the subsequent destruction of the German U-boat fleet in May/June 1943.

In the post-war era, many APS-2s were passed off for other services. Some of the USA's first weather radars were modified APS-2F radars. (en)
