Interesting article. Perhaps a good case could be made for saving some of those RAF Regt AD sqns and deploying them around Sellafield. How feasible would an up-to-date version of the barrage balloon be, as a defence measure for nuclear installations, at times of heightened threat? I read they proved highly effective during WW2. I still think hijack prevention is the only realistic defence.
