Abstract. JSC All-Russian Research Institute of Radio Equipment (VNIIRA) conducted a practical experiment to measure the rate of the observed rate of moving clocks located on aircraft performing flights. It was experimentally confirmed that, according to observations, the clock moving towards the observer goes faster than its stationary clock, and the clock moving away from the observer, according to observations, goes slower than the stationary ones. It turned out that SRT contradicts this experimental fact: in accordance with SRT, moving clocks in all cases (regardless of the direction of movement) are observed to go slower than stationary ones. The relevance of the experiment is due to the fact that at present SRT formulas are widely used in works on satellite navigation systems. Meanwhile, it is well known that the use of erroneous formulas in the development of navigation and surveillance systems in the aviation and space industries can lead, at best, to a deterioration in the performance characteristics of these systems. In the worst case, this may affect the decrease in the level of safety of aviation and space flights, lead to accidents and catastrophes in aviation and astronautics, to significant economic losses and human casualties. The work consists of two parts. The first part presents the theoretical foundations of the experiment. The continuation (in the second part) presents the results of the experiment. The experiment was carried out using the Avrora-2 monopulse secondary surveillance radar manufactured by JSC VNIIRA, which provides high-precision measurement of the time intervals between the moments of transmitting a request and receiving response signals from aircraft transponders. The paper presents reliable formulas that should be used instead of the corresponding SRT formulas, which contradict the experimental data.
