In early 1935 Robert Watson-Watt was asked to produce a 'death ray' capable of destroying intruding aircraft.

This he deemed impossible, but on the 25th February 1935 he proved that radio waves could detect incoming aeroplanes and by 1940 a chain of 19 radio towers was in place just in time to play an important part in the Battle of Britain.

It was later proclaimed that radar in all of its forms was fundamental to the Allies winning the war.
