Summary/Abstract: To protect the antennas of radar stations from the external environment, various radomes are used. The main electrical requirementsfor these products is the requirement of introducing minimal distortion of electromagnetic waves (EMW) while maintaining strength and protective properties. It is important to identify and localize areas that do not meet the requirements for the magnitude of energy losses, to evaluate their sizes and boundaries. A new method for radomedefectoscopy is proposed, it includes a way for measuring losses under weak anechoic conditions, and for estimating the sizes and shapes of sections that do not meet the requirements for the magnitude of losses.
