The SM was a fighter direction radar developed from the SCR-584.  It was rather heavy at 9 tons and so was only installed on carriers.  It could track in three dimensions with high accuracy and at close range, and it included a BM antenna for Identification Friend or Foe (IFF).  However, its distinctive beam, which was narrow both horizontally and vertically, made it unsuitable for air search.
