Perhaps appropriate to the current discussion; (Gun) busting makes York feel good

West Falkland is also home to two RAF radar sites – Mounts Alice and Byron. With both down temporarily for routine maintenance, York filled the gap, providing an ‘air picture’ for the islands’ military command before the radar sites were powered back up.
We do appreciate that it is, perhaps, presented more dramatically than it would have been.
