If it had Doppler, this would indicate a BEA Comet 4b.
Both things you mention are nav systems but if both are out of action, the aircraft would be unable to use normal ground based navigation systems of the time and would be unable to fly on airways.
I think doppler on its own was allowed, but you would need 2 VORs in the absence of doppler.
