to scan the skies during the Cold War for nuclear weapons that may have been fired. Britain just built five such radars, and one was sold to tech entrepreneur William Sachiti earlier this year as part of the sale of an abandoned RAF air base.

Also included in the land parcel was the Type 84 radar, which is a"historical monument" and cannot be demolished. Instead, Sachiti wants to get the radar working again.
