EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early days of the Cold War, specifically to RAF Holmpton's 25-ton Type 80 Radar eye. The year is 1968, and this radar station serves as a crucial part of the ROTOR Radar Defence Programme in East Riding, England. As we gaze at the image, we are immediately drawn to the mesmerizing whirl of the radar eye as it spins tirelessly. In this era of heightened tensions and military preparedness, RAF Holmpton played a vital role in providing early warning signals against potential threats from above. The Royal Air Force's dedication to defending the United Kingdom during times of war and conflict is evident through their investment in advanced technology like this massive radar system. The photograph captures not only an impressive piece of machinery but also reflects on Yorkshire's contribution to national defense efforts. Located near RAF Patrington, this base symbolizes unity and strength within Britain's air force. As we reflect on this moment frozen in time, let us remember those who served diligently at RAF Holmpton and other similar installations across the country. Their commitment ensured that our skies remained secure during uncertain times. This print by Staff Jars Harland allows us to appreciate their sacrifice while reminding us of a significant chapter in British military history.
